ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently in Bangkok on a tourist visa and has just extended their stay for an additional 30 days. They are seeking options for re-entering Thailand once this extension expires, aiming for the maximum possible stay. Community members suggest that the user cannot apply for another visa online and would need to visit a Thai embassy or consulate in a neighboring country for a new tourist visa. Options discussed include doing a 'border run' to receive a 30-day visa-exempt entry stamp, which can be extended for another 30 days, or applying for a new tourist visa, which would offer a total of up to 90 days with extensions. It is also noted that consistent long stays might raise questions at immigration.
