Myself and a friend are on Visa Exempt until 14 April, we are in Bangkok when/where can we go and request an extension, this trip is lasting longer than expected.  Always had a one year Visa US Gov would arrange, retired now so have to do my own  (rats)  What do we need to bring, with us.  besides pspts, pictures, forms, departure tickets??.

Thanx for any positive replies, the others??  will be ignored.

you don't extend the visa ( which you don't have anyway as you are visa exempt) you extend the permission to stay stamp given on arrival, you can extend for 30 days at any local immigration office (1,900 baht)

you will need all the doc's you listed plus copies of id page of PP, and copies of arrival stamp and tm6, you may also need proof of address and for the place you are staying at, to have completed a immigration form TM30, Chaeng wattana in Bangkok is the best place to go.

 

look on here plenty of like threads to read up on

Thanx a lot..........all info in one place is good to have.

You can extend you your entry for a 30 day at Chaeng Wattana immigration. Map and info on getting there is here. http://bangkok.immigration.go.th/en/location1.html

You will need a completed TM7 application form with a 4 X 6 cm photo attached. Copies of your passport photo page, entry stamp and TM6 departure card.

They will not ask for a TM30 form.
