Is it possible to obtain a 15-month visa in Thailand and what are the conditions?

Sylvia ********

@Gamalier *******

currently most countries are given 60 visa exempt on arrival, just watch the posts as possibly will reduce to 30 days. What country passport do you hold? I see you have already asked this question in another group and been given alot of information. You need to apply for tourist visa online, not with an agent
