How can retired couples from the UK stay in Thailand for 6 months a year?

@Steve ******

From your Embassy probably OA .

@John ********

that's what am doing

Had a retirement visa told my thai wife

No way can I do 40deg +

So doing the 6 month one

Get the triple lock in UK

and no 0 bht in the thai bank

You can also extend the 60 day stamp at your local immigration office for ฿1,900

So here is the most efficient way to stay 9 months

Arrive get 60 day stamp, extend 30 days at ฿1,900 for a total of 90 days

On day 90 depart for a border bounce, microcation minication then return get a 60 day stamp extend it for ฿1,900

In the last 3-5 days to the expiration date do a border bounce minication microcation return get a 60 day stamp then extend 30 days

This will give you 9 months on a 6 month visa

Plus it doesn’t count against your 2 visa exemption stamps per year

Good luck
