Hi, would like to know if there’s a limit to single entry tourist visa or SETV (90 days, inclusive of 30 days extension)? I’ve got 4 Thai tourist visa stamps on my passport already. The latest one was taken last year, December. Thank you.
Answer summary
There is theoretically no strict limit to obtaining Single Entry Tourist Visas (SETV) for Thailand; however, some travelers report facing issues after obtaining several consecutive visas from the same consulate. It is suggested to use different consulates for each application to avoid potential refusals.

In theory no limit but after 3 or 4 from the same consulate you might get a stamp saying they wont issue another one. Use different consulates for each visa and you shouldnt have a problem
