How do visa extensions work for tourists in Khao Lak during peak travel periods?

• Tourists can apply for a visa extension at the local immigration office, which is generally recommended to be done at least a week before the current visa expires.

• Extensions are typically granted for an additional 30 days, but require proof of accommodation and financial stability.

• During high season, expect longer wait times, so it's advisable to arrive early or consider making an appointment.
