Thailand: Koh Samui Immigration Office and Visa Extension

Since we had one more entry on our Thai visa and we wanted to validate that at the Immigration office. Later we learned that this could only be done if you leave Thailand and come back, which is basically a 24 hour uncomfortable visa run to either Malaysia or Myanmar. So we decided to get the visa extended at the immigration office.

It is possible to extend a 60 day tourist visa in Thailand for another 30 days and it costs 1920 THB. The process takes about one hour we had lunch in a restaurant nearby while they were processing our request. The service is friendly and pretty quick they basically give the extension to anyone wanting to stay on Samui longer.

If you want to extend your visa just for a few days bear in mind that it might be cheaper if you pay the daily visa overstay penalty when you leave Thailand, this is 500 THB / day counted on overstayed days.

The full pricelist is on our featured photo.
