So, the date must not exceed 180 days?
Answer summary
In Thailand, each stay on a multiple entry visa is limited to 180 days. Users suggest that it's advisable to apply for up to 179 days to avoid issues, as they experienced no problems even when applying for longer durations. It's important to understand that the total visa duration may be longer but individual stays cannot exceed 180 days.

Each stay is 180 days at a time - it's a five year multiple entry visa but for up to 180 days each stay (you can just border run every 180 days). You should just put anything up to 179 days in that section to be safe.

I put 365 days for my wife and I and we had no issues getting approved. I personally think they use it to determine if this is the right visa for you. If you were staying for 60 days then maybe this isn't the right visa for you.

Anonymous participant 957 could you please tell me, how was it for your wife to get this visa? Did she have to pay separately and show proof of 500.000 on her own bank account, or yours was enough?

Yes... I applied under Workcation in Malaysia, once approved my wife went to Vietnam and applied as a spouse/dependent. Two separare applications and payments. We had to show 1,000,000 baht for wife's application (500k each) as it was a joint account. We already live in Thailand as we arrived on METV before DTV was available.
