TLDR : Answer Summary

Simon is seeking advice on how to secure a 1-year visa for moving to Thailand with his Thai girlfriend. A comment clarifies that there is no specific visa for those in a relationship with a Thai partner, suggesting alternatives based on age: the non-O retirement visa for those over 50 and the DTV for those under 50.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

There is no Thai girlfriend visa. If you are over 50 you can apply for the non-O retirement visa. If you're under 50, about the only option you have is the DTV.
