Good day experts! My husband and I are coming to Thailand from the US in May and are interested in the multi entry 6 month visa. Can anyone offer advice on the visa? Is it recommended, easy to obtain, etc?

Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The multi-entry 6-month visa for Thailand is considered relatively easy to obtain, particularly through the eVisa system. However, applicants should be aware that some embassies may require proof of multiple entries (such as more than one booked ticket) to issue the visa; otherwise, a single-entry visa may be granted without a refund of the application fee difference. Additionally, it's important to apply at the right time, as the validity period starts from the issue date of the visa, not from the first entry date.

You also want to make sure you time it correctly and don't apply to soon, the 6 months starts running from the issue date and not your first entry to Thailand.

Beware that some embassies will need proof that you need a multiple entry visa (I.e more than one booked ticket to Thailand) otherwise they may well issue a single entry and not refund you the difference in application fees.
