Hey all! I'm planning to visit Bangkok for 3-6 months. Should I go with the destination thailand visa or the multiple entry tourist visa?

I'm coming to train muay thai, work on some personal projects, and try to make my savings last as long as I can.

If I went with the typical ME tourist visa, how much would a typical border run cost? Also, can I get 60 days + 30 extension, then do a border run and come back and do the same 60+30 days? Or is it only 60 days?

Any information is greatly appreciated! I'm getting a headache looking online so I figured I'd just make a post here haha

Ok I know this has been asked a million times ...

TM47 online askes "Date of Thailand Arrival"

Date of last arrival

Or

Date of Arrival on current visa

Or

Date of last 90 day report

Or

Date of last Tourist arrival

???

With multy entry visa 6 months you can enter Thailand as many times as you want? also by bus as many times you want? or just by air?

You became TAX resident of Thailand if you stay more that 180 days - in tax year 1.1-31.12 or 365 days in any period?

If I stay for example in 2024 from 15.7 till 31.12 - cca 167 days and in 2025 I stay 175 days (for example from 1.1 to 1.3 and from .5.9 till 31.12) that would not qualify me to Thai tax residency? Thank you

Just had a mail from Gov. uk. Entry to Thailand has now reverted back to 30 days! 🤔

New changes

Hi all, I have looked at other posts but am a little confused. Hopefully I will get some clarity.

I am on visa exempt 30 days. I want to get visa extension for 60 day tourist visa. Is that a possibility?

If so, what are the requirements.

If not, what sort of extension will I be able to apply and receive?

6 or so years ago I could do visa exempt+60 day extension. No idea what the rules are now.

Hi, plan to move to Thailand later this year. I'm married to a Thai citizen and more than 50 years old. Not quite sure of which visa to go for yet, O based on retirement or O based on marriage. I have a Bank account in Thailand, but it's a mutual with my wife. I know I have to get an account in my name only. My question is, if I send money to that account, and later transfer it to a new banked money account, would that be acceptable, when showing proof for the needed amount of funds ?

Hi Guys, Quick question for you. Does a 90 day report window open up on Arrival or on Admittance? For example: If I have a 90 day Non- O ( retirement) and the stamp for this visa gives an admittance date, does the 90 day report window open up from this admittance date or indeed the day I actually arrived in the country and was stamped in visa exempt?

How can I do a 90 day stay in Thailand so I can set up my retirement Im in the USA what type of visa should I apply for a while here in my country? the retirment part I get . It’s what I do to get the 90 days first.
