Can I go to the immigration office on the last day of my 30-day visa entry for an extension?
Ricky ******
Why more UK residents don't apply for a 60 day visa in the comfort of their home if they might stay beyond 30 days is crazy. Takes an hour to apply (once you've done it before) costs £30 and comes back within a week. Saves so much potential aggro unless queuing in an immigration office for hours might be fun.

Is it advisable to overstay my tourist visa in Thailand for just 2 days?

It's their country, so break the rules, suffer the consequences. A Facebook defence is not liable to work under Thai law😁

Do I need a printed copy of my Thai visa for immigration or is it electronically stored?

 Without a hard copy I would be amazed if they can (or can be bothered to) access it online.

Can I apply for a 60-day visitor visa to Thailand and extend it for another 30 days without hotel accommodation?
Ricky ******
@Frank *******
 Correct. I have obtained a few 60 day visas from the UK embassy. They only need proof of a flight to Thailand.

You don't need an onward ticket with a 60 day visa, although your airline may query it. You only need one if arriving visa exempt.

 Not my experience applying a few times through London for a 60 day visa. Even applying a couple of months ahead, approved within 10 days.
