ORIGINAL POSTER

This question is for a good friend of mine:

Hello. I want to stay three months in Thailand this winter. I was thinking about using my marriage certificate and applying in England. However, I don't see my Thai wife anymore but we are not officially divorced. Any thoughts on that?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A user asks about visa options to stay in Thailand for three months, referencing their marriage to a Thai citizen, although they are no longer in contact. Multiple commenters suggest applying for a Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) or a Multi Entry Tourist Visa (METV), with explanations about the options and how to extend stay periods.

tourist visas for thailand are sold two ways

SETV <- single entry tourist visa (you have 90 days from the date you buy the visa to enter thailand ONCE and get stamped in for 60 days)

METV <- multi-entry tourist visa (you have 6 months from the date you buy the visa to enter thailand as much as you want and each time you get stamped in for 60 days)

Just get the SETV plus a 30 day extention of stay, that gives you 90 days in Thailand
