Hi all… I usually get the over 50 non oa visa but was considering trying to make life a little simpler if that’s possible. We are in Thailand for 6 months … can we do tourist visas to cover this period?
Is it 30 days on arrival and then 60 day tourist visa then leave Thailand for a while and then return?
Uk passports
Any tips on good insurance? Normally do non oa type insurance but not sure it’s the best option
Thanks
TLDR : Answer Summary
To stay in Thailand for 6 months as a UK passport holder, you would typically start with a tourist visa that provides a 60-day stay upon arrival, with the possibility of a 30-day extension for a total of 90 days. After this, you would need to leave the country and could either apply for a new tourist visa from a nearby Thai embassy or consider border runs to re-enter Thailand. Alternatively, a multiple entry tourist visa could allow for an extended stay with multiple entries and extensions. For health insurance, using travel insurance from your home country is recommended, as it covers repatriation and other emergencies.
