danboksida1 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Hello everyone, A friend of mine lives in Huahin on a retirement visa and up until now he went to the Bankok immigration office to get his extension. I told him yesterday we also have an immigrationoffice here in Jomtien so maybe he could come here and visit me and do his extension here. But we are not sure if this is possible for somebody who lives in Huahin. Does anyone here know if you can do your extension at any immigration office or do you have to go to the one closest to your house? Thanks Regards Danboksida1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 It should be done at his local office or Bangkok (and the push seems to be to make it local office only). Do not believe Jomtien will want anything to do with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tominchaam Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 Why does your friend not use the service of the immigration office in Hua Hin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeaceBlondie Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 tom's right. The Hua Hin immigration office was downtown in the police center, has is now down an unpaved end of Soi 102, I believe. Check our Hua Hin/Cha Am forum for directions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do not believe Jomtien will want anything to do with him. I know this is a bit off the topic.........But my retirement visa expires December 4th and I would like to renew next week as I will be in LOS (Mai Sai) for a few days. Am currently living in Shanghai for a two year work asignment and would like to avoid making a trip in November just to renew the visa. I heard you mention retirement visas can be renewed 30 days in advance of expiration and sooner if there are extenuating circumstances. How do I prove extenuating circumstances. Is it an informal process? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted October 15, 2007 Share Posted October 15, 2007 dman, Yes, sometimes people have reported this is possible. Just show up with your air ticket out showing you won't be in Thailand during your normal extension period. People commonly come in 30 days before expiry, but sooner than 30 days out is an exception you will have to ask for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
