I and my family are now in Thailand with Tourist Visa and it is the first time for us. We are looking for long-stay here (Longer than Tourist Visa). I am a freelancer and have good enough income. So I think I don't need a job here. Is there any chance for us long-stay without working in Thailand?

Appreciate for all your advices. 🙏
Answer summary
A family currently in Thailand on a Tourist Visa is looking for options to stay longer without needing work. Suggestions include applying for an Education (ED) visa, particularly for adults, and confirmation that a long-term visa application is necessary to meet requirements for extended stay.
