I have a valid retirement visa which I shall use to re enter Thailand on 29th September (single rentry).  the extension is valid until May 21st 2023.
However I need to return to the Uk mid March 2023. I want to try to avoid applying for a new retirement visa if I can.

I am aware that I can get a new extension 30 days early ,and some offices allow 45 days? 
my question is the opposite of most queries…….can I get a renewal extension earlier than 45 days.?    My normal immigration office is Hua Hin.

my thanks in advance for your assistance/experiences.

That's not necessarily the case.

Reports of providing immigration with (for example) outbound flight for genuine reason an earlier application can be accepted. 

 

OP I suggest you discuss options with HH immigration.

Share the Immigration order which states your claim

There is not one but Immigration Offices might help out if a good reason is given.

Worth a try.

You go to the UK in March but when do you return back to Thailand after that?  If it is before 21 May then you can get another single reentry permit and get your extension when you return.

 

Otherwise you will probably have to start over in the process.
