Extending your stay in Thailand is possible through several visa extension categories, depending on your current visa type. A visa extension must always be done before the expiration date of your current permission to stay.

Common extensions include:
• 30-day extension for Tourist Visa or Visa Exemption
• 7-day emergency extension for some nationalities
• 1-year extensions for Non-Immigrant Visas (O, B, ED, etc.)

At Thailand Global Visa, our team prepares all required documents, checks eligibility, and coordinates your extension at Immigration to ensure a fast and smooth process.
Fees at Immigration are 1,900 THB, and the processing time is typically 2–3 hours.

Visa extensions in Thailand follow strict immigration rules. Important conditions include:

• Extensions must be done before your current stay expires
• The extension length depends on your visa type (7, 30, or 365 days)
• All photocopies must be signed according to Immigration standards
• Overstay, even by 1 day, can result in fines or refusal of extension
• Immigration may request additional documents depending on your situation
• Extensions are counted from your current expiry date, not the submission date

Our role at Thailand Global Visa is to make sure every document and requirement is fully prepared to avoid delays or rejection.

Eligibility varies depending on the type of visa extension:

For a 30-day Tourist Extension:
• Holders of Tourist Visa (60 days)
• Holders of Single or Multiple Entry Tourist Visa
• Travelers entering Thailand with Visa Exemption or Visa on Arrival

For a 7-day Extension:

Our team evaluates your eligibility and prepares the exact list of documents required for your case.

The visa extension process in Thailand follows these steps:

2. Submission at Immigration
Submit your full application at your local Immigration Office in Thailand.
The officer will check your documents carefully and verify your eligibility.
