Can you extend early? Or will extension be from whatever date you visit immigration?

Hope that makes sense, thanks in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can extend your Thai visa early. The extension will be based on the original expiration date of your visa, not the date you visit immigration for the extension.

Extend early. Extension date based on expiration date, not extension date.
