When I came here on a tourist visa, doing exactly what you are planning (except it's was 89 days), I bought a flexible ticket out within 60 days and as soon as I got past immigration in Suvarnabhumi I just cancelled my flight and went to immigration on day 55 to extend my visa 30 more days, getting a new ticket lut of the country before I applied.
98% sure that no Thai authorities ever check that app after you've passed your 5 day test. And they're scrapping that test now. So. Welcome to Thailand 🥳👌
is the best option. I walked out of there after 4 months and was speaking enough Thai to be able to keep learning by myself and got to a fluent level in a year.
yes, that is true. So Paul should spend his money on learning Thai. Living here and being able to speak Thai makes things much, much more comfortable 👌
