Phuket immigration

Featured Replies

Is the immigration office still located in Patong close to the beach and Bangla Rd.?

And does the office usually get quite busy during low season?

Yes, still there, but it is not a full-service office like the one in Phuket Town. Whether it is suitable for your needs depends on what you wish to get done. I imagine it would not be very busy during low season. Maybe avoid Monday and Friday, and go mid-morning. It is open for fewer hours each day than the one in Phuket Town.

They accept 90 day reports. You can do 30 day extensions for tourist visas and visa exempt entries and re-entry permits.

If it's a 90-day report, you could do it online and if it works, save yourself a trip.

I want to do a tourist visa extension. Can I use my hotel's address for the address?

Yes you can use a hotel address. Perhaps have a receipt to prove it if asked.

Another question: the address used on a visa extension form has to be local to that immigration office, right?

It has to be within the area serviced by the immigration office where you apply. Which would be all of Phuket province in this case.

What are the chances of being asked for a receipt on the hotel?

And if I renew tourist visas at the same location, will it cause a problem? I know extensions, much like the visa itself have basically no limitation, but what if i extend always at the same immigration office?

Thanks again

For a Tourist Visa extension no hotel receipt is required.

Use the hotel address with room number if requested. (phuket town request this)

You can't renew a tourist visa, only buy a extension for a month. (If you have a 60 day tourist visa)

As long you have a valid visa immigration doesn't care how many extensions you do and where.

i was told u can also buy an extension for 30 days on the visa exempt entry

i was told u can also buy an extension for 30 days on the visa exempt entry

Yes certain countries are eligible for a 30 Day extension on Visa Exempt Entry. (VOA)
