Seems like slight overkill in my case, e.g. it's not likely to be more than 3-4 months in a year. Applying online doesn't seem to be an option. London is ridiculously inconvenient.

Right, normally I wouldn't worry as I basically left Jan 3rd and was planning to come back in November for another 60 days. But now for various reasons may head back late Feb for 30-45 days. Always by air.

Not available online for me, need to travel to embassy.

Looking for feedback about using visa exempt entries vs pre-applying for a visa. Last few years' patterns of coming to Thailand: Dec 19 30 days Feb-April 22 45 days, Thailand pass/Covid thing Jan 23-March 23 45 days (1 extension) Nov 23-Jan 24 60 days (1 extension) Planning 60 days in Nov 24, but I may also stay 30-60 in late February... All of these entries are visa-exempt, by air (UK passport). I'd like to avoid pre-applying for a visa as it's a bit of a hassle where I live, but at what point do the number of visa exempt entries start to look dodgy?
