Immigration Bureau (สำนักงานตรวจคนเข้าเมือง)
Thai name: สำนักงานตรวจคนเข้าเมือง 1 (ศูนย์ราชการแจ้งวัฒนะ)
When To Visit
Visit Chaengwattana for almost any in-person immigration matter relating to a foreigner registered in Bangkok — visa extensions (retirement, marriage, business, education), change of visa type, re-entry permits, Certificate of Residence and walk-in 90-day reporting. Online TM.30 and online TM.47 are supported for most cases, so visit only when the system rejects the filing or a stamp is required.

Practical Notes
Arrive by 07:30 on the first and last working day of the month — queues for 90-day reporting and retirement extensions are at their worst. Bring originals plus two photocopies of every supporting document.
This entry summarises practical visit details for a Thai government office as a starting point. Office hours, phone extensions, queue policies and procedural requirements change without notice — always verify with the issuing authority before travelling.
