Can you extend a visa in Thailand without a TM30?

I wouldn’t worry about it. Immigration doesn’t know when you arrived at your condo, only when your lease started. You may have been traveling in another province and in a hotel. As long as you have it, don’t worry about when it was filed. As others have said, it wasn’t your error.

You’re placing your friends’ actions and policies onto someone else? I have friends (actually, most of them) who don’t live in Asia. Does that mean you don’t?

Why would a hotel manager in Jomtien check my UK passport's exit date?

Ruth *******

@Pertti ************

the date is then the expiration of the extension of stay...same thing. I don’t know why you feel this desperate need to bicker. Meanwhile , if you didn’t know, why did you argue about it in the first place?

Ruth *******

@Pertti ************

nope. That would be “checkout date”. The “expire date of stay” is in the visa section, after “type of visa” and before “port of entry”.

I did not say it’s required. I said it’s on the form. As such, hotels may feel they need to enter it.
