TLDR : Answer Summary
A single entry tourist visa for Thailand is valid for 90 days from the date it is issued. Travelers have 90 days to enter Thailand after receiving the visa, and upon entry, they will receive a 60-day stay stamp in their passport. This stay can be extended for an additional 30 days, allowing for a total stay of 90 days in Thailand. Note that a flight ticket purchase is typically required to obtain the visa.

the only thing is you have to buy ticket first to get the visa..

Nope. Just put the date you want to travel.

Assuming you mean single entry tourist visa, it's valid for 90 days from the day you receive it.

You then have 90 days to enter Thailand, and once you enter you'll receive a stamp in your passport allowing you stay for 60 days inside Thailand.

You can also get a single extension for 30 days, giving you 90 days total.

I’m from the uk. Can I still get a visa on arrival (30 days isn’t it?) then can I extend and pay once I’m there or will I have to have proof of outbound flight!! Thanks

British don't get visa on arrival. British can enter Thailand without visa for a stay of 30 days that can be extended once for 30 more days. Outbound ticket is mandatory though.

ok I understand but if I have an outbound ticket booked when I enter but say it adds up to say 45 days would they let me enter which would mean I would then extend before my 30 days are up?

No you can only extend once, better off for now getting tourist visa @ 60 days then extend 30 days. Nobody knows when borders will open. You should know that same as causeway say soon then cancel all year
