Thanks for the add , I've been going to Thailand for 30yr and I get my pension next year I want to go for 6 months next Oct . Thai embassy say can get 6 months visa but have to go out of the country every 60 days , is that correct ?

Visa run

I am German and having a multi-entry Visa.

I entered Thailand already a few times since November 2023 via BKK.

My visa is now until 1st of Feb. I am staying in Koh Phangan. As I planned to stay here 4 months I am thinking about doing a visa run to get another 60days before doing extension to 90days and visarun.

Is there anything I should pay attention to here?

Any easy way to get A 6 month visa without jumping through hoops, leaving the country a couple tomes, etc. We just to stay 6 months and than go home

If I am right I can get a tourist visa for 60 days plus 30 day extension. Plus 2 land border runs 30 days plus 30 day extension each. So that is 7 months in total. Is there a way of getting the other 5 months in 1 year to get a full 12 months ie can I do a few air border runs

Multi-entry tourist visa question (USA passport)

Is it possible to get a METV without a job? I was denied last time I applied (Washington DC consulate) 6 months ago via their online portal because I’m unemployed. I saved some and am traveling so I won’t be employed for a while.

I’m certain that was the issue bc the consulate and I emailed back and forth a few times about this topic and they specifically said without a letter verifying employment they can’t give me the visa. Is there anything I can do? I can show reasonable savings and I can show passive income (not a lot but decent for Thailand).

Anyone have experience getting the metv? Is it notoriously difficult to get?

What's going on with the STV nowdays especially now that we're in October? is it dead? the long stay company no longer has it on their site

Hello, I suppose this is an elementary question: what is the best visa to get (38 year-old, own financial means) who just wants to holiday long-term?? (no muay-thai, no language learning) just the simplest visa for the longest term possible? I suppose that is tourist 30 days+ 2 extensions = 90 days max for the year? Thank you

Looking for advice.....

I was married to a Thai for 8 yrs. and always got the 1 yr multi entry visa... now I'm not married and I'm looking to go back and live in Thailand I'm not sure what visa I need to apply for...

I'm 54 , I don't have the money they ask for to keep in ur bank acc.

I don't have a monthly income I can show on paper.

I just have funds in my bank acc. To last the yr.

any advice welcome , thx.

I would love some clarification on my METV, issued May 15th. Which is a 6 month visa. To extend and receive another 60 days, I must leave the country before July 15th (60 days after issue), correct? When I re-enter Thailand must I show the same docs as when I first got the visa ie: bank statement, hotel stay, onward ticket?

Then I can get a 30day extension at a visa office? To make it a 9 month stay?

Must I leave the country at any other time or am I good to go with the above schedule?

Loads of questions....Thank you!

Hello everybody, it dazzles me with all the options so I need advice on Visa. I am dutch, turned 49 in the beginning of this year and have my own company. I am taking a sabbatical this year and I want to stay in Thailand as long as possible (no work - only relax and travel a little bit) with the possibility to go back and forward to The Netherlands if this is needed for my work/business. The Thai consulate in Essen Germany is closeby where I live and I am planning to stay in the Hua Hin area in Thailand. So what visa suits me most for this purpose. Thanks
