ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone, 

I'm looking to come to Thailand the start of next year with my little girl who is 2. I was looking to get a 90 day visa, or a tourist and just extend it whilst I'm in the country. Everything has changed so much since I last came, and having a child in not sure how it all works now. 

Any advice would be much appreciated xxx

Both need to go for the 60 day tv and extension. Can be argued that the kid doesn't need a visa (assuming you can both get visa exempt) as they can't be fined or banned, by that I mean they need it but nothing will happen if they dont
