this is the first, coming from the 90-day visa. I also have an injury. Traveling (even by Grab/Bolt) is very difficult. I really hope I don’t need to return. Thx.

@Roberto ********

I was asking if there was a branch, not how to ask a teller to update the book.

@Marty ********

Is there an actual Kasikorn bank branch there? I have everything but the bank book update. I'm nervous about relying on one passbook machine at the office and having it possibly not work (like the one outside my local branch today, where I had hoped to do a trial run). If I can do the passbook at the machine if it functions, but know I have a backup plan to go into the branch when they open, I'll feel much better. I'm planning to go tomorrow.

Thanks.

when I went on earlier today, there was one appointment available for April 17 at 8:30 AM. Yesterday, there was nothing. 

@Roberto ********

I'm going to the bank today to try to get everything in order to go to immigration tomorrow. I will also try using the ATM to update my bankbook. I did notice that the last time it was updated the current date was not included. I guess I will need to do a small deposit or withdrawal or deposit as Joan stated. I will check with them though...maybe there's a way to force the extra entry. Thank you both for the help.

While I appreciate your attempt to help, that is also not an option. No option on the menu at the immigration office is for extension of stay. Most options on the menu are not in English at all after choosing English on the main menu. If one chooses any of these, one gets the same message repeatedly. I know enough (very little) Thai to know what numbers they're stating, so I choose those numbers to stay on the line to no avail. The one option that gets me a human reaches a general information officer who is not an immigration officer. He then gave me that same main number to reach an immigration officer.

To sum things up, calling does not work as well...which comes as no surprise. I cannot remember the last time I was able to get service anywhere by phone.

So, again, I was looking for someone with personal experience having gone to Bangkok immigration.

@Marty ********

what happens if the office is closing and you’re waiting? I’m concerned about the need to get the bank paperwork then get to the office.

@Graham *****

there are no appointments. I tried as well. Nothing for march and I could not even look into future months. I don’t know if the system is just broken, but no appointments are available according to the website

@Lawrence ********

I’m not in the least bit confused. Immigration law is not based upon your feelings.

@Steve *******

fair enough. I save my calls for WiFi.
