@Philip ******
so you are seeking to get the SETV single entry tourist visa as a way to stay in Thailand for another 90 days (60+30) ? Back to back entries into Thailand, either by Visa Exempt Entry or with a SETV single entry tourist visa may cause you to be questioned by Thai Immigration Officers upon arrival.

Be prepared to answer Why you want to stay in Thailand? You're not a tourist.

Have a booking for your initial week or so in Thailand, show ticket departing Thailand within the 59 days of your arrival into Thailand, and 20,000 Thai baht in CASH if asked by the Thai Immigration Officer who greets you on arrival.

Were there any other recent history of visits to Thailand other than the 3 months stay you just completed?

What is your passport nation?

Where are you planning on submitting the Thai Visa application?

Why are you wanting to apply for the SETV single entry tourist visa?

Have you been told by Thai Immigration Officers upon arrival to get a Thai Visa next time you seek to enter Thailand?

What is your recent history of entry and or staying in Thailand?

Simply get a NEW PASSPORT before you Apply for the one year extension next year.

It's easy to do while you are in Thailand.

Then you will obtain the full year extension.

Keep it simple...

List of the first place where you are going to stay... with copy of Thai wife's 🆔 card with the invitation letter.

The Non O visa gives you a 90 day stamp on arrival.

Just how long are you really planning on staying this trip ?
