Jim Faulks well if you know anything about Thailand you would know that if she is 50 or older she can apply for a Non-O visa and extend that for a year based on retirement that's why it fucking matters

It would have been better if she had got a visa before travelling to Thailand but, if she is prepared to pay and take the (small) risk, an agent should be able to get some sort of visa for her. I know agents in Pattaya were charging

What ever Visa u want , she would have to leave the UK to apply for it from her ( own or where she resides ) country and comply to all regs. For that Visa.

I have an Asian wife , we had to do the same for a settlement Visa.. she was refused even after previous visits to the UK.

Not easy to get if it was a settlement Visa u sought.

if u can’t get STV go visa exempt n do ED visa. That was my second option if I didn’t get approved.

go visa exempt, find an agent in Thailand n get ed visa. It would probably be advisable to start your search now for a reputable agent before you even get in Thailand.
