Apply for the Thai Elite Visa if you want to stay single and long term in Thailand.

Some people get asked and others did not get asked.

Be prepared and there should be no problem, ignore the rules based on some comments on Facebook and problems will arise if you get asked.

Choice is yours.

And what is the country of origin of your passport and the reason of your visits?

But find the basic information yourself

In case you are new in Thailand and not an Immigration Specialist:

TM stands for Tor Mor and is translated Immigration Office and the number is the number given to the document:

TM30 is short typing for Registration of Address

TM47 is short typing for Report of being 90 days in Thailand.

TM7 is short typing for Application of Extension of temporary stay in the Kingdom.

TM6 is short typing for the temporary on hold arrival/departure cards.

There are much more documents numbered but these are the most common ones used.

If you want to stay 6 months in Thailand the 6 months valid multiple entry Tourist visa might be more convenient to suit your needs.

With border runs and extensions you can stay with one visa for almost 270 days

As you acknowledged and signed to understand the rules, go and cancel your work permit and Extension of Stay.

WOW, don't admit you are working, no options for Digital Nomads.

It seems some experts never did read any of the Immigration Visa rules.

The Non Immigrant B visa allows everybody to work inside Thailand in combination with a Work Permit, the ideal combination, You can tell every body you work, you contribute into Thailand with paying tax and you have social security,

And the biggest benefit, you do not have to leave Thailand as long as you work, as each and every year you can apply for 1 year Extension of Stay based on working in Thailand at your local Immigration Office.

Live can be so easy and legal if you just pay a little attention to the rules.

OR just apply for the Single Entry Non Immigrant O visa based on being married to a Thai National, get 90 days on entry and extend once with another 60 days based on visiting Thai family. 150 days without bouncing and using visa run companies.

I know I like to give visa advice, not how to avoid buying a visa.

As many times you wish and can meet the requirements of the Thai Immigration
