How can I extend my Thai visa for 30 days before it expires?

Ling *****

@Graham *******

I did one in Pattaya, September last year. I was in at 8.30 am and out by 9.05 am. It's not bad if you can get the form and fill it out prior to getting there. Just get the all they ask for and it's only 1900 baht doing it yourself.

What are the tax residency rules in Thailand regarding the 180-day stay and bank accounts?

Ling *****

I have had 2 Thai bank accounts for 20 years +. Any amount of interest is already taxed automatically. I don't stay longer than 180 days a year in Thailand so I don't need to declare anything from overseas.
