Got a 45d visa on arrival (i.e. the normal, no application procedure etc.)

 

Stamps says "admitted until", presumably I can actually fly out on that exact date?

Yep. 'Admitted untill.....', can fly out, exit, on that date.

By the way, what you have is a 45-day, visa-exempt entry.

Or can go to immigration and get another 30 day for 1900tb.

Is that Automatic ? I mean is there never any problem ? Just pay the fee and you get the 30 day extension ?

Is there such an Immigration Office in Korat ? I just don't know .

Yes, the 30 day extension is routinely given. The only real issue some people at some immigration offices encounter is the requirement to be reported at an address in the area of the immigration office they apply at. That's the TM30 reporting you often read about on here. Before applying for the extension, you need to ensure that the hotel (or wherever you're staying) has reported you.

Is it safe to assume that the proof of outward travel within 30 days requirement is extended to 45 days along with the exemption?

I don't ever remember doing that for an extension.

 

I've only written the flight number or "Friendship Bus to Savannakhet" on the form (2 sides of A4).

 

This person has it right as far as I recall:

The confused person you are quoting is not asking about a 30 day extension.

 

when arriving visa exempt it is a requirement to show proof of onward travel booked, A requirement typically enforced by the airlines and they will not allow boarding without.... does not happen often but it does happen.
