I'm in Thailand and my wife is in Utah, USA. She's coming back soon and wants to get a 60 day tourist visa. She has a US passport.

Does she just contact the local Thailand consulate there? I haven't googled it yet but I'm trying to help her out because I don't know if she would figure it out herself. I love you honey. 😂

TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a 60-day tourist visa for Thailand, your wife needs to go online as all Thai visa applications from the USA have transitioned to a digital format. She should visit the official Thai e-visa website at https://www.thaievisa.go.th/ to complete her application.

Go online apply for a 90-day non-o visa

Is that possible? I thought the 60 was only available. I don't fully understand the difference. Is it based on age?

it depends on your status inside Thailand. Are you on a Non-O or a Non-B visa? If so she can get a visa based on being married to you.

I will send you the website so you can read it over My wife has family there so I was able to stay on a non-O visa

We just applied online It doesn't matter what your age is. If she has family there in Thailand they can invite the person for a 90-day visit

All Thai visas in the US have moved online. If she contacts the embassy they will just tell her to apply online.

does she have to know her entry date? She hasn't bought the ticket yet

I don’t know why you’re laughing. Not all countries require that, especially since visa processing can take varying times. When I got my visas for China, Vietnam and Cambodia, I did not provide a ticket.

@Jack ********
they generally want to see your ticket to Thailand as part of the application

when it asks her which consulate to use on the application, refer to this map.
