How to make it painless
- Arrive before opening for extensions; queue numbers can run out by late morning in high season.
- Bring copies of every passport page you've used, signed. Copy shops nearby charge a few baht a page.

- Check whether the office is using appointments for your service; this changes.
Hours and procedures change. Confirm before you go.
