im under 50 years old europian citizen .

can somebody tell me the best way to get 1 year visa to stay in thailand (with all details) ?

p.s. im not intend to make any bussiness in thailand.. just want to get visa for 1 year.

next year im 50 years old anyway; may apply for retirement visa.. i need only for this year.

thank you

What country will you be applying from?

Some consulates will issue a multiple non-immigrant O visa for the purpose of visiting friends or family. It would require you to elave every 90 days, but you would be able to return the same day. When tyou turn 50 you could then apply for an extension of stay based upon retirement.

You should contact the Thai consulate in Stuttgart Germany. They will issue multiple entry non immigrant O visas to visit friends. They will accept mail in applications from anywhere in Eurpope.

How does this compare with the Hull Embassy in UK, I hear the Hull is the best in the UK.

I am in Azerbaijan at present but I am from UK originally.

It is about equal tp Hull. I guess you could say it is Germany's Hull.
