You can enter on visa free entry stamps as many times as you wish, they count the actual days you spend in the country and you cannot spend more than 90 days in any 180 day period.

Yes, they count days, not entries and you're allowed 90 days in Thailand in a 6-month period on visa free entries. Be aware that they have not yet mastered the art of counting the days correctly...but you're still way under your allowance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you meant THB400K This is the best advice, if you are legally married to a Thai. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no rule change preventing it but few Consulates will issue multi entry visas anymore as you are expected to obtain an extension of stay if you live here. Best chance is from home country Consulate (not usually Embassy) where it fits the pattern of multi short visits rather than from Consulates in the immediate area where the suspicion is you do not meet financial qualifications to extend if you ask for a multi entry. Currently only KL seems to be willing to issue them and have not seen any current reports so not sure if that is still the case. For those on oil work type month out/in rotations it might be worth trying to make a case because believe some might accept that as an exception to normal policy but there is no guarantee.
