What should I write on the Multi-Entry Visa form for visiting my girlfriend in Thailand?

Quick question about the MultiEntry Visa form for the Thai Embassy in London.

1- I'm actually going to visit my girlfriend in Thailand, would 'tourism' suffice here or would saying 'girlfriend' work in or against my favour ? [I've already been entered Thailand 4 times since November 2018, but that was for legit tourism via air, travelled from England, then HK and Japan - on single entry visa 30 day stamps]

2- What does this mean?

3- Do I just say 6 months here? I will be staying 9

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post raises a question about filling out a Multi-Entry Visa application at the Thai Embassy in London, specifically regarding how to describe the reason for traveling (whether to write 'tourism' or 'girlfriend'), understanding specific visa requirements, and how long to state the intended stay. Comments provide suggestions, emphasizing to list 'Tourist' as the purpose, and addressing concerns about necessary supporting documents like a flight ticket and hotel reservation.

Thank you all,

I also required the following

1-A photocopy of the confirmed air ticket to Thailand

i'm going to Vietnam first, would ticket to Vietnam and another from there to Thailand suffice? This is pretty annoying considering I have to buy a ticket before i've even been approved.

2-A photocopy of the hotel reservation confirmation in Thailand

I will be staying in my gf's house so not sure what to do here?

for staying at a private residence you might need a copy of their ID card of the possessor of the residence. Best to ask the consulate to clarify.

Actually it states here that can i show utility bill, if i'm staying with relative. Might be safer to book hotel then cancel

A little bit funny, but with a METV a flight ticket is not necessary,i don,t sent it when I applied from Denmark

It's a generic form, so 2. is for a different visa. Just put 'Tourist' and '60 days per entry'. To be honest, I don't think they really care about the info on the form. It's the supporting documents (mainly the financial requirements) that matter.

Just remember,your visa start the date the embassady stamp it in London

*You have unlimited 60 day visas in a 6 month period. Each can he extended in country by 30 days. You need to leave Thailand every 90 days

You can use ur last entry shortly before the 6 months expire so it become almost 9 months.

@Farzad ******
no it might make them think you plan to overstay. Just say 60 you'll be good.
