Three month visa.

My wife and I, both UK citizens over 50 years old wish to stay in thailand for 3 months early next year, what is the preferred option please, also what would be the process ?.

A Tourist Visa would grant a stay of 60 days on entry, which can be extended for an additional 30 days at Immigration (1,900 BHT), total 90 day stay.

@Faz Is it worth mentioning the 45 day VE option? I understand that is only 1st October to 31 December at the moment but I suppose it might be made permanent. Are there any extensions possible with a VE entry?

Even a VE entry of 45 days + a 30-day extension will only grant a stay of 75 days.
The OP stated they wanted to stay 3 months. 90 days is near enough.

Fair enough. Anyway when they read this they will see that they have an option of a 75 day trip without having to get a visa in advance if that suits them
