The Special Tourist Visa was introduced in the time of Covid to help improve Thailand's tourist situation. It was always a temporary program that ran for 2 years and allowed recipients to stay in Thailand for up to 9 months without leaving.
Since it was a temporary program, the visa has now ended and an official notice is posted on the Thai EVisa website.
The standard tourist visa that allows you to stay in Thailand for up to 60 days at a time with a 30 day extension is still available and you can use that to stay up to 90 days at a time.
Otherwise, you do have to look towards some kind of long term visa.
Thailand has started to move towards more premium visas such as the Elite Visa and the new Long Term Resident visa. Staying for a shorter time really means a limited 90 day period.
If you do want to stay longer, we suggest you book a consultation with us to explore what your options are and what the costs might be.
"Friendly , informative videos and the staff actually responds to emails quickly!"
"I contacted this company thinking they could help me arrange a border run, but that's not part of their business. Still, they talked to me for ten minutes and kindly answered all of my questions. I was very impressed by their customer service even though I wasn't even a customer."
"I had watched their YouTube videos and contacted them with a question about visa services. They were a great help in getting my Special Tourist Visa. Most likely I wouldn't have gotten the approvals in time, and I would have had to reschedule my dates, flights, arrival etc. and at great additional expense had I done it myself. I would definitely recommend them for this service."
