Hi All!

Has anyone done back to back toursit visas since everything has been open again? Is it even possible?

Thx
Answer summary
Yes, it is possible to obtain back to back tourist visas in Thailand. While consulates generally allow the issuance of a second or even third tourist visa without issue, applicants might eventually face scrutiny regarding their intentions if they apply for too many consecutively. Immigration officials might question frequent entries and exits, especially if no long-term visa is held.

Not an issue for one or two. It’s quite normal for a tourist to travel to Thailand, exit to somewhere else and come back for a while.

That said after one or two back to back you’re open to them questioning you on your intentions. The embassy may not issue, or the immigration officer may ask you why you’re trying to enter so many times without a long term visa. Nothing is set in stone. You could have six back to back and no one says anything. You could have two and get asked.

There is not now, nor has there ever been a rule against doing this.

Most of the consulates around Thailand will issue you a 2nd and possibly even a 3rd TR back to back before they start asking questions. But eventually you will get pushback from both the consulates when you apply, as well as immigration upon entry about why you are doing this.
