TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about applying for a new visa after leaving Thailand with a 6-month multi-entry tourist visa. Several commenters confirmed that it is possible to apply for a new visa anytime, suggesting that the embassy welcomes applications. They advised that new eVisas typically have a validity of 90 days once issued, meaning entry into Thailand must occur within that timeframe to avoid expiration. Additionally, there are no strict limits on the number of visas one can obtain back-to-back, though awareness of individual embassy regulations is important.
90 DAY REPORTING RESOURCES / SERVICES
  • Use the trusted Thailand 90 Day Reporting Service to get your in-person report done and mailed to you for as low as 375 THB (even if the online system doesn't work for you).
  • For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.
  • Join the Thai Visa Advice Facebook Group to ask your questions, and get advice from others.

There is no limit on how many you can buy back to back

However

What embassies/consulates issue and who the I/O allows in are 2 separate functions

There has always been a disconnect

It depends on when you apply. Just remember when you do receive your EVisa it will be only valid for 90 days from the date, it was issued, in which during that time you would have to enter Thailand or the visa would be expired.
