TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about returning to Thailand on a TR visa after their visa exemption ends and whether they can apply for this visa online before departing. A comment suggests that applying for a TR may be unnecessary if the user qualifies for visa exemption, and notes that TR applications must be made at an embassy or consulate outside of Thailand.

If you qualify for visa exempt then there is little point in getting a TR. it may offer a slightly easier entry but offers no guarantees.

You apply at an embassy or consulate outside of Thailand. You need to be in that country to apply.
