TLDR : Answer Summary

There is currently no official limit on the number of times one can obtain a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV) for Thailand. Users have reported obtaining multiple six-month METVs from the same consulate without encountering issues at immigration.

There is no limit as of yet...nor have I heard of anyone that has been stopped with that visa at immigration yet...could things change in the future yes...but now you can basically live here as close to full time as possible

nope, as a rule you can only get a 6 month METV from the thai consulate in your country. No consulates in S/E Asia will sell them unless you hold legal residence in that country.

Does it depends on the nationality?
