So this agency allows you to renew your tourist visa indefinitely.

You read that right, as many times as you want with no issue.

Now, you should try to get the DTV visa which is good for 5 years.

But if you don't qualify or for whatever reason you want to do tourist visas, here is how it works this agency process works.

It's an agency called Thai Visa Centre.

You get in touch with them via Line primarily.

You can find access to their Line via their website which is show in the image above.

Simply contact them and tell them what you want.

If you want to enter in on a tourist visa again and again you can totally do that.

Tourist visas you can do back to back once, allowing you to stay up to 6 months.

Beyond that, if you try to enter in on a 3rd time you're going to have a problem. You could even be denied entry.

That's why this service is helpful if you want to enter in on a tourist visa again and again, back to back as many times as you like, and know for certain that you won't have any problem or be questioned.

The price is 4000 Baht.

You'll have to send over your passport photo page, a contact number and the last visa stamp you were on.

Once you submit payment, you'll have send over what clothing you will be wearing at the airport so the visa staff can pick you up, then you'll go through the VIP lane at immigration where Elite visa holders go.

I know it sounds weird, but yes you will have to take a picture of your clothes and literally send it to them.

Then when you're at D6, which is an area right in front of immigration, an officer will come to meet you and escort you through.

Done.

As simple as that.

You'll get 2 month which can be extended an additional month. Ideally you should also use this agency to extend your visa for a month as well as you may have a problem going to immigration directly to extend your visa yourself as it will look really weird that you've been on tourist visa with an extension, after tourist visa with an extension and so forth.

The agency will do it on your behalf and it's quite convenient as you simply pass off your passport to someone else and they take care of it.

So to add up the costs:

Tourist visa: 4000 Baht x 4 = 16,000 Baht a year.

Visa extension: 4000 Baht x 4 = 16000 Baht. Yes the standard price is 1900 Baht, but this agency charges 4000 Baht.

So all together 32,000 Baht a year to stay in Thailand on Tourist visas.

This is also not including the costs of actually leaving Thailand. Typically, you'll have to leave for 3 days at a minimum.

So make a little trip out of it, and when you're ready to come back to Thailand in a week or two, this agency will take care of everything for you.

You also must fly in to Suvarnabhumi Airport, each and every time.

Overall costs

In short, it will cost you around 60,000 Baht a year to do this, with you leaving every 3 months on a short 3 day trip

Like anything, it's not free.

But if you've already done the education visa thing, and you don't want to train Muay Thailand like I did (which costs 100,000 Baht a year) then staying on multiple tourist visas is possible, you just can't do it by yourself.

You need to use this agency, stay for 3 months then leave for a short tip and always fly into Suvarnabhumi.
