ORIGINAL POSTERI'm planning on coming into Bangkok, April 1st, and I'm interested in getting a 6-month visa. And I'm not sure what option to take
TLDR : Answer Summary
For a 6-month visa in Thailand, you might consider applying for a tourist visa with multiple entries, which requires showing proof of at least two inbound and two outbound tickets. You can apply online via the Thai e-visa website or check with your local Thai embassy. Alternative options include entering Thailand on a 60-day visa on arrival, followed by border runs and extensions for additional stays. For specific requirements, it's advisable to check the official government website or seek guidance from the embassy.

You don't need a visa for 6 months .60 days on arrival 30 days immigration office border run 60 days then visit immigration office again for another 30 days .it worked for me in 2025 as with lots of other ppl

@Ronnie *******
but it't won't work now because doing a border bounce then trying to do a an extension on that entry will probably just get you 7 days at best ;)Ronnie ********

Especially if you have never been to Thailand before but you can ask an agent from Bangkok they will gladly help you but if it's first time no need for them only for a border run

Your local thai Embassy or consulate website would be best place to apply for e-visa

They’s only one visa valid for six months and you just apply online for a tourist visa with multiple entries. You’ll probably need to prove minimum two inbound and two outbound tickets.
