How can I extend my stay in Thailand beyond 30 days if I come from a visa exemption country?

If you are from a visa exemption country and receive a 30-day stay upon entering Thailand, there are options to extend your stay beyond this period. You can apply for a 30-day extension at your local immigration office, which requires a fee and an onward ticket. Alternatively, you can apply for a Tourist Visa before arriving in Thailand, granting you 60 days on entry with the possibility of a 30-day extension, allowing a total stay of 90 days without leaving Thailand. Be sure to have a return ticket for both the initial stay and any extensions.
