Hi looking for some advice please. Myself and my wife(both over 50) are coming out to Thailand in October from Uk. We are planning on staying for 6 months and 6 months back in UK then back to Thailand 6 months over a 2 year period and was wondering which visa would be best to get. Any advice would be appreciated Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A couple from the UK over the age of 50 is seeking advice on the best visa to obtain for their planned bi-annual stays in Thailand over the next two years. Community responses suggest considering options such as the Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV), which would allow them to stay for six months each year without requiring substantial financial commitments like the Non-O visa. Others discussed the Long-Term Resident (LTR) visa and the Non-O-A retirement visa, emphasizing the need for health insurance and financial evidence. The conversation highlights various perspectives on the pros and cons of each visa option to meet their travel plans.
