I will be in Thailand for 6 months, from October until the end of March 2026. If I like living there, I will be applying for a non-O retirement visa when I get back home. Applying for a non-O now is not an option, since I am not retired yet.
I don’t think I qualify for a DTV, since I am neither a digital nomad nor a remote worker. Or does anyone know a way around this?
Apparently they don’t do Special Tourist Visas at the Thai embassy in The Netherlands (I’m Dutch), so that doesn’t seem to be an option either.
I guess what remains is the ordinary 60-day tourist visa, which I then have to extend twice while in Thailand. Is that possible, or would I have to do a visa run?
Would really appreciate your input and/or advice.
