***UPDATE: Visa Extension in Bangkok
Went to Muang Thong Thani Immigration centre. You need a passport photo, a copy of your passport, your passport and 1900 THB. You can get pics and copies on the ground floor.
Go to floor 3 (counter K) and make sure you get a ticket. They only give out 300 per day and some people were arguing at the front that they had been waiting for ages but didn't have a ticket so weren't served.
We got there at 11am and got ticket number 164. At at 12 they closed for lunch until 1pm. In total we waited about 3 hours (excluding lunch).
There's a room where you fill out the forms (6 sides in total) and you have to give a reason for needing the extension. The first option mentions 'the ongoing pandemic' so that's what I wrote.
I'm from the UK and couldn't get a tourist visa before I arrived as I wasn't travelling from there, so it was denied as I couldn't provide flight tickets from the UK to Thailand.
Hope that's helpful :)

Just arrived in Thailand on a visa exemption, but I want to extend it so have some questions!
Sorry here's an update on info! I'm from the UK, here to visit but want to stay as long as possible :)
1. Where do I go and what do I need to take? I'm in Bangkok.
2. Is it likely that I'll even get the extension? I heard that it's only for people who can't go home because of covid, but I definitely could if I wanted to.
3. After this extension runs out, if I want to stay in Thailand for longer, how do I go about it? Would I need to leave for Cambodia for a few days and then return on an exemption again?
Thank you!
