US citizen arrives on a visa exempt wants to extend

[Banana7 787]

Which form to use to extend stay for a US citizen who has arrived on a visa exempt? Any instructions on how to fill-in the form?

[DrJack54 2,413]

Its 1900 baht. Make sure you have current tm30.

Regarding form they have them at imm, just bring your crayons to fill in

The form is simple, and there is really no need to have it filled in in advance. If you really want to see it, its identifier is "TM7", and you can see it at http://www.immigrationbangkok.com/files/visa_forms/tm7.pdf

That is the old TM7 form from a commercial website.

on my first extension, i didn't know what to put on page 2.  unaware of the meaning of 'tambon', 'amphoe', and 'changwat'.    i didn't have internet access at the time and had to ask the immigration officer for assistance.  not super critical but might want to verify those items.

You may want to update the form, on the back page above "NOTE", with a space for the applicant's phone number. They always ask for the phone number.

I do not update immigration forms. Only immigration can do that.

How long can we extend for, after arriving on the 30-day visa exempt?

It depends upon the office you apply at. 

It can be applied for a week or 2 before the 30 days end at most offices.

You can extend for an additional 30 days for 1900 baht

I am US citizen myself, just did mine at the Kanchanaburi office last week. Down loaded the Tm7, filled out on the computer, printed and signed it. You will need a 4×6 cm passport photo, Copies of Tm 30, and passport pages. Took about 20 minutes total. I was here a week into my visa exempt, and had no issues.

Beware! 

Without TM30 there is no extension at all

no photo, nothing but 1900 Baht, I sat their 5 minutes and it was done professionally, they took picture of me from computer and I showed them business card from hotel, absolutely painless, this was in Udon Thani, nothing to fill

in...I’m USA
