3 Months Visa And Visa Runs, Is It Possible To Do This?

[khman]

Hi all.

My wish is to stay at least 1 year here in Thailand.

Is it possible to do this without setting up a company, ..? I heard there is a max 6 month stay per year in Thailand.

I'm french.

I was here already 1 month, then came back to Paris, and now I'm here for 2 months (did the visa) + 1 month (ext).

At the end of these 3 months, will go back to Paris for a few weeks.

If I ask again the 2 month visa (and then extend it here), will they accept?

If yes, at the end of these 3 months (I will extend), will I be able to go to laos, malaysia, etc and can I extend 2 months again?

If yes, it means I would have passed 1+3+3+3=10 months on the last 12 months in Thailand, is it legal?

After I'm ok for coming back to Paris, but I'd like to restart all the process.

Is it possible? Looking for a 1 year stay (ok for visas runs). Or I have no choice I have to setup a company?

Thanks again

[Maestro]
