It looks as if the 60 days more than cover my requirements as after 60 days I will be spending a week in Taiwan and then return to Thailand when I plan to stay one more month this is on a UK Passport. However my friend is on a German passport so am I right in assuming that he would get the initial 60 days then extend that by 30 days at the immigration office. Following that 90 days he would then fly to Laos for a couple of days then return to Bangkok and get another 60 days which can be extended for the 30 days at thew immigration office at the end of which he returns to Germany. If that is not feasible how could he cover the approx 6 months (16th Oct - 9th April) he wishes to stay.
