Hi everybody, thank you for the add!

My 90days tourist visa is coming to a end next week. I would like to extend my stay as more as possible, 1year would be amazing. I also have a double nationality : French and Belgian. I'm asking for your precious advices. What solutions do I have to stay longer? I already booked a flight to Hanoi for next week.

Thank you!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks advice on how to extend their 90-day tourist visa in Thailand for a longer duration, ideally one year. Comments suggest applying for a Non Immigrant O visa if the user is over 50, or applying for a new tourist visa for younger individuals. There are discussions about the limits of obtaining multiple tourist visas in a row, necessary documentation for visa applications, and tips related to visa processing times and requirements.

they know you can get an extension on the 60 day visa so a flight in 90 days is fine

So if I have a flight after 90days it's not okay? I need both in 60days and 90days? Sorry for all these questions.

 on their website they state you provide proof of 20K baht in a bank account, proof of onward travel in 60 days and proof of a hotel booking, but recent reports are you just show onward travel

I'm French so they give me 15days without any prior visa, I can do it at the airport for free when I arrive.

Glad you could get into the country without any problems.

Guessing you have the visa for Vietnam before you go ? I had one but didn’t realise it was date specific , so talked my way onto the flight from Thailand but at Vietnam immigration got told I’d arrived ten days early and they could send me home . I apologized and admitted I didn’t realise and said I’d just do what they wanted . It was friendly enough and they gave me fourteen days . But the airline shouldn’t have let me fly .

You apply day one in the morning and pick it up next working day in the afternoon.

Official there is no limit, Consulates and Embassies in surrounding countries can give a stamp with how many you used and warning that next time they might not issue another one. Also Immigration can ask questions on how you support yourself during the time without working in Thailand.

There is no official limit, but each consulate has their own number they will issue before they red stamp your passport. Like these examples:

If you're younger, apply for a new tourist visa for 60 days and extend with another 30 as you have done with this visa. That means every 90 days do it again and again.

They ask for proof of onward travel and bank statement of minimum 20.000 Thb or equivalent valuta. Passport with 6 month validity, passport picture (4x6) and the application form.
