What are the options for staying in Thailand from October to April?

To stay in Thailand from October to April, you have several options depending on your nationality and situation. You can enter on a visa exemption, which typically allows for 60 days plus a 30-day extension by visiting an immigration office. For longer stays, consider applying for a Non-O Retirement Visa if you are aged 50 or over, which requires proof of funds (800,000 baht in a Thai bank account). Alternatively, the DTV visa is another option for digital nomads. Some users suggest making border runs to extend your stay every few months. Always check the specific visa requirements based on your passport and plan accordingly.
