ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
A retired Australian couple planning a 6-week holiday in Thailand has two main options: entering on a 30-day visa-exempt entry and then applying for a 30-day extension for a total of 60 days, or obtaining a 60-day tourist visa from Australia for 1,000 Baht before their trip. Many community members suggest that the latter option is more straightforward as it avoids the hassle of immigration procedures during their stay. Additionally, it can often be cheaper than extending a visa upon arrival.
