TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the timeline for processing their visa and Certificate of Entry (CoE) after November 1st, with a flight scheduled for December 19th. Responses indicate that it is advisable to begin the visa application process now, as there is typically a three-month validity period for entering Thailand upon issuance. Additionally, there are queries about the processing time for the visa and specifics regarding the O-A visa, particularly its entry type.

OA is 1 year multiple entry, you can actually get 2 years out of it if you time your last entry with the expiration date of the visa.

Nothing wrong with getting your visa now, you have three months to enter once issued.
