 I paid 10 baht in Bangkok.

But since you’re in the country for more than 24h without a tm30 you will be fined, most likely 800b, but can be up to 10k baht.

What are the current requirements for extending a DTV visa in Thailand?

@Andreas ********
 that’s the easiest way. But you can do it yourself too but might be denied in the 40-50 first branches you walk into, and will probably have to buy their insurance for 5k baht which is what an agent charges you. So agent is easier choice.
