What is the best visa option for living in Thailand for 6 months?
Hi , wich visa do you advice for living 6 months in Thailand ? 2 x per year tourist visa can be a solution ? Thanks
Answer summary
For living in Thailand for 6 months, using a Tourist Visa can be a solution. A Tourist Visa offers a 60-day entry stamp that can be extended for an additional 30 days. There are considerations regarding applying for multiple Tourist Visas within a year, as some embassies may have restrictions. Checking the eVisa website for applications is advisable.

It depends where you get your tourist visa from. Some embassies or consulates will not give you two visas in a year. If you apply via say the evisa system in your home country first and then later in person at a nearby consulate then probably not an issue.

Yes, a Tourist Visa gets you a 60 day entry stamp which can be extended for 30 days. Check if you can apply on the eVisa website.

You can get a Tourist Visa as many times as the Embassy will issue you one. The only "twice a year" rule regarding entry to Thailand is using the Visa Exempt method by land border.Activity
