I have a 60 day tourist visa which I would like to extend by 30 days. It is my understanding that I can do this at Laksi, is this correct? Also how early into my 60 day visa can I apply for the extension, I will only be 2 weeks into the trip when I arrive in Bangkok.

TLDR : Answer Summary

To extend your 60-day tourist visa by 30 days, you cannot do this at Laksi. Instead, you need to go to the Chaeng Watthana office in Bangkok. You can apply for the extension when you have 45 days or less remaining on your visa. It is also recommended to make an appointment in advance due to long queues, and to download and fill out all necessary forms before your appointment to expedite the process.

Also it’s much better to have all the forms downloaded and filled out before you get to the appointment. No reason to ever sit there filling out forms.

Yes as

@Bra****

says you go to CW. Advise you to make an appointment as queues can get very long at times. With an appointment you can be in and out in 45 mins

Good stuff! You beat my prediction by five minutes. I'm surprised more people don't do this. Many spend the whole day just to get an extension!

No, you cannot do this at Laksi.

If you have a tourist visa that you purchased before you traveled to Thailand, you can only extend this at the Chaeng Watthana office for Bangkok.

You can apply when you have 45 days or less left on your existing entry stamp.
