What if you wanted to legitimately tour parts of Thailand only for a total of five months a year, split into two stays, july and august and then later in Dec, Jan, Feb. Do you think you need to get a retirement visa, or some other form of visa, or can you just come in on a tourist visa?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The original question inquires whether a retirement visa or another type of visa is necessary for spending five months per year in Thailand, split between July-August and December-February. The discussion highlights that frequent entries on a tourist visa may be possible without needing a retirement visa, suggesting that multiple entries each year are manageable, particularly if one maintains a record of previous visits.
