TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking options for staying in Thailand for 3 to 4 months, as they have previously used a tourist visa for shorter stays. They mention confusion regarding information from the embassy's website. One commenter suggests the possibility of getting a 90-day stay through a tourist visa or options like the Non-O visa for retirees.

90 days is easy as there a few ways to get a 90 day stay without leaving Thailand (Tourist Visa (and, currently, Visa Exempt), 60 days + 30 days extension, Non-O over 50 (90 days)). Will you be visiting once a year or more because the Non-O over 50 plus the 12 month extension might suit such a plan?
