I’ve googled this and also looked at some posts in this site. If this has already been answered I apologize in advance. I turn 50 on October 30 2027 .I will have the money in wise account ($25,000) for the retirement visa and I have the monthly income requirement. I am willing to take Muy Thai classes and I was under the impression they are good for 9 months. Could I go in February and stay until October and I turn 50? Thanks 🙏

I want to stay next winter about 5 months in Thailand. Whats the best way?

Entry by TDAC for 2months + 1months Visa extension + Visa Run + again 2 months stay or Application for Visa O-A ?

This there a 6 month visa one can get ?

I want to stay in thailand 5 months and also get health insurance this year. Last trip I could stay for 6 months. Every 60 days made border run to Cambodia.from Pattaya very easy. Can I do this this year ?

We're a family of four, two kids aged one and five. We want an extended period here in Thailand before our oldest starts school in August 2026. Initially our holiday was 59 days with flight booked home. We'll have been here sixty days when we fly to Vietnam instead, where our plan is to apply for a six month multiple entry visa. We're more than happy to do some travel in other nearby countries during this six months to meet requirements. This should get us to July after which we plan to go home and not return to Thailand for several years.

Is this line of thinking reasonable and legal?

Hello everyone. My partner is British, he’s 73 years old. He’s entered Thailand on 15 November by Multiple tourist visa apply in Uk which will expire on 14 January. He would like to live in Thailand for 6 months.

Question!

Should he extend tourist visa on 10 January? So he can live 1 month and Then he fly to Singapore for 7 days on 14 February. He fly back to Thailand. So he can stay in Thailand 60 days?.

Or on 10 January he fly to Singapore and apply for non o visa then fly back to Thailand so he can stay 90 days?.

He booked the flight back to uk on 15 May 2026.

He got 2 strokes which is difficult for him to walk.

Many thanks.

Hi we are thinking about staying in Thailand for a year, both retired. We would leave Thailand every 5 months then come back. With all the drama over the crackdown on border runs etc, what is the best way forward? Which visa?

Edit Australian both over 60yrs.

I want to arrive in Thailand Nov.21 on multiple entry tourist visa. In 60 days I will have to exit and re-enter thailand for my visa. My question is; On my application for METV under Travel booking confirmation can I show a plane ticket to enter Thailand Nov.21 and exit Thailand to Laos with a bus ticket 59 days later? Is that acceptable?

They rejected my DTV and gave me only half a year instead of five years - out of compassion. How often do I need to renew my visa at immigration - every 30, 60, or 90 days?
