I would have thought this question would be pinned but it doesn't seem to be.

Simple question - I am approaching the 2 month deadline of my first tourist visa, so I need to get it extended by 30 days at immigration.

Where is immigration? How do I do this? What should I know / do before hand?

Thanks.

It would really help if we knew where you were.

This post might explain it a Bit !

Nothing like waiting until the last minute to ask this. Immigration that you report to depends on the area you are staying in.

Sorry yes, I am so used to posting in the BKK forum that I forgot to mention it - Bangkok! (Ekkamai)

Thanks for all your help. I have about 9 days until expiration - first time so don't want to screw it up!

Thanks.

Go a few days early then you have time to correct any mistakes.

OK thanks - is there a lot of form filling?

Jesus, it costs 1900 baht to extend? What a racket! Only cost me 1250 baht to get the 2 month visa in the first place!
