Can I apply for another Tourist Visa On Arrival after leaving for Vietnam from Thailand?

Question

Sirs: I will arrive in Thailand from USA applying for TOURIST VISA ON ARRIVAL with a departure time of 42 days later in January 2024 (I'll have a return ticket) However i will leave Thailand on Day 13 from my arrival Date in Thailand to a trip in Saigon. I WILL have a Departure Date and Return Ticket to Thailand 7 days before i leave on DAY 40 (2 days before Original Visa on Arrival Expires to travel home). Can I do this and return and just apply for Another 15 day Tourist Visa On Arrival  to finish up my time in Thailand? Hate to have a round trip ticket from USA and cannot get back into Thailand. Thank You for your attention and help!!

First of all you cannot apply for visa on arrival as that's only for a few countries who have to apply for and pay for a visa when you arrive.

If you have a US passport you'll receive visa exempt which means no visa at all.

Thailand won't care about your flights but keep proof of your flight to Vietnam with you when you go to check-in to your flight to Thailand. Your airline may require you to show proof that you're leaving Thailand within 30 days since you don't have a visa.
