Can I do a ‘drive through’ at Phuket immigration for multi entry permit with a retirement visa?

Just a quick FYI if using the appointment booking system at Phuket Immigration office.

I made an appointment a month ago to renew my annual retirement extension and received a reminder by email the day before. However, on arrival was told they don't use the appointment system anymore and take a number 🤣

The queue was not too bad as there seems to be more staff now.

Just a reminder! Phuket immigration ( up stair office)

Will not ( guys) let you step foot inside if you not wearing trousers. I saw many turned away. Along trip down there for nothing for these guys! 👍

Am I right that I can apply for my 30 day extention within 45 days of my 60 day visa expiring? If it makes any difference I'm planning on using phuket town immigration.

Many thanks

90 day report done online 14 days prior due-date in Phuket and accepted within 1 hour.

Since I arrived in Phuket nearly 2 years ago, never had to show-up life at immigration for report, despite several travels outside Thaïland. Always submitted 10-14 days prior due-date and TM30 always done at return.

This is my experience in Phuket.

Approved! So happy lol

- Bought *1 way* ticket to HCM and an onward ticket reservation in event airline asked - they didn’t.

- Cancelled ED visa 1 month early. Took ~20 mins at Phuket immigration. Flew the next day.

- Applied late 24th Dec (Muay Thai from a gym in Phuket)

- My Thai address is a bit complicated as it’s just a room owned by a restaurant owner. I copied the address from TM30/47 (although technically it is wrong)

- Put the flight back around 2-3 weeks later. Forgot exact.

- Used first PDF merger and compressed for documents.

- Took 1 photo that included the hotel receipt (Just realised the receipt was just 1 day as I wasn’t sure on the hotel. Probably risky but worked), my passport stamp and the flight booking. On this document I also included a photo of my literally standing next to the hotel lol.

- Receieved additional documents request on 2nd Dec asking for 6 months bank transactions. I used same merger tool and sent around 50-60 pages of 2 banks. One with 500k the whole time and another with 500k the week before.

- Approved today 6th Jan — 10-12 WD’s?

Thank you everyone for all your help. More than happy to answer any Q’s!
