MULTIPLE VISA OR NOT? PLEASE HELP
My airline ticket on EVA airlines shows that I arrive in Thailand on January 26 and will leave Thailand on April 27th. However, when I arrive in Thailand I am purchasing a ticket on Egypt Air leaving Thailand (for Egypt) on March 20th and returning to Thailand on April 21st (this is a second air ticket). My reentry into Thailand will be a six day stay before returning on the 27th of April to the US.
I understand I need a tourist visa (allowing a visit up to 60 days) which I am getting before I leave AND this visa will allow me to stay until March 20th . My question is do I need a multiple entry visa ? —do I need a visa for the second entry April 21st - April 27th since it will be less than 30 days? or do I need extenson with a re-entry permit. HELP PLEASE!!!
I am a US citizen.

You should ask the Thai embassy/consulate here in the US to find out. But personally, I don't see a problem. Your second stay is only 6 days, and a US citizen wouldn't need a visa for that visit anyways. And even if you add up the two stays, you're still under 60 days.
But that's just my opinion.

It is pretty clear that you won't need a visit for your second, 6-day, stay because it is less than 30 days.
Your first stay is 54 consecutive days, so you would need a tourist visa for that.
When you enter the country you might be asked to show that you have an onward/return ticket. But what you will have to show at that point is only your return ticket for 92 days later.
There may be a better chance that you will be asked for proof of onward/return travel when you submit the visa application.
