TLDR : Answer Summary

A South Korean wife and her three-month-old baby will need to apply for a Non-O visa from outside Thailand, based on being dependents of the husband who holds a Non-O Retirement visa. Upon entry, they will receive a 90-day stay and can apply for an extension of stay linked to the husband's visa after 60 days. Required documentation typically includes proof of marriage, but specific requirements can vary by Thai consulate.

She needs to apply for the Non Immigrant O visa based on being a dependent, she will get 90 days of stay on entry and after 60 days she can apply for the Extension of Stay to match with yours.

Depending on the Thai Consulate you like to use it differs in documents needed, just type the name of the place and Thai consulate in google search and you can see the website to find their requirements.
