Should I renew my passport before moving to Thailand in July/August if it expires in December?

I may be wrong but - I think you need a passport that is valid at least another six months upon entry.

What do I need to prepare for traveling back to Thailand with my Thai wife?

James *********

One thing to keep in mind... if you do NOT have a direct flight, you run the risk of having to be quarantined in a “transfer” country if anyone on your first flight is suspected of having covid, or is tested positive for covid. This quarantine will NOT exempt you from the mandatory quarantine once you arrive in BKK.
