You can’t get the extension at the airport. It’s rare that they ask for accommodations unless you look homeless.

All of the visa requirements are on the Thai Embassy website for your country.

If you don’t have an unusual history, you shouldn’t have a problem.

The work visa is issued to the employer, not the employee. You have to find an employer to sponsor you.

The other benefit of getting an extension instead of overstaying by one day is you could be stopped by the police on the way to the airport, then jailed, then deported. The odds of being stopped are very low but not zero. The consequences are very high.

It’s difficult to work in Thailand and stay longterm unless you’re 50 years old or older. Lots of information on the Thai Embassy website for your country and on Google. When you are serious about starting a company or buying into one, legal advice is definitely recommended. Everyone talks about how nice the Thai people are and they are in general. However, there are also Thais that take advantage of foreigners. You need to protect yourself from them.

The day you get stamped in counts as Day 1, even if it’s close to midnight.
