Hi, again, moved to Bangkok on non immigrant O visa (guardian) two kids going to school here on Ed visa, my wife works abroad and comes and goes whenever she gets time, she enters in an regular entry visa (we are all

from Italy) as she stays only for few days each time but these might become very frequent up to twice a month, can she continue to do that? Any suggestions? I know she can get the same visa as me but it’s a bit complicated with the work and travel schedule at the moment..

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about their wife's ability to continue entering Thailand on a regular entry visa while making frequent visits (up to twice a month). Commenters suggest that as long as she has proper documentation, such as evidence of accommodation, financial means, and onward travel, she should not face issues with immigration. They also mention that there are no official limits on visa-exempt entries by air, and one respondent recommends considering a METV (Multiple Entry Tourist Visa) if concerned about the frequency of visits.

As long as she is polite and smiling, IO should not make her any problem. The 3 proofs will get her through each time, as Robert Lagas says.

Twice a month, a few days each doesn’t sound like going to be a big problem... but if you really worry about that maybe she can get METV from her resident country...

Official there is no limit in the Visa Exempt Entry coming in by air. But she can be asked for the three proofs if she gots more of them in the passport, so have the 20k Thb or equivalent, proof of accommodation and onward travel just in case.
