What visa do I need for a second Thailand visit after using the 30-day exemption?

Cliff *********

You are overthinking this.

Come in for 10 days and enjoy yourselves.

Go out .

Come back in for 25 days and enjoy Thailand even more.

There is no such thing as the limit you mentioned.

You will not look like you are trying to live in Thailand.

No worries.

Is a retirement visa the only option for living in Thailand for a year?

Cliff *********

Why do you have to stay for a year to see how you like Thailand?

Get 2 month tourist visa and extend 1 month.

By then you will know how you like it.

So you want to live in Thailand based on children going to school there.

How will you support yourselves?

You cannot work without a work permit…..and you cannot stay long term.

Find another scheme.
