ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello, I submitted a question regarding staying in Thailand for 6 months and what the best visa would be for it which appears to have been deleted. I'm trying this again. I would like to leave October 1 and return April 1. Is this possible with two tourist visas and 30 day extensions or is there a better way to achieve this? Also, if you choose to delete this question could you please let me know why it isn't an appropriate question? Thank you.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user seeks advice on staying in Thailand for six months, questioning whether two tourist visas with 30-day extensions would suffice or if there's a better visa option. Comments suggest that obtaining a METV (Multiple Entry Tourist Visa) would be ideal, allowing for up to nine months of stay with border runs.

Hope you understand what Tod Daniels replied to you by PM.

Obtaining the METV multiple entry tourist visa is perfect for your travel plans to Thailand. With planning it can get you up to 9 months stay in Thailand with a planned Border Bounce.

Safe travels...
