i am an american living in thailand on a multiple-year thai work visahave previously

Question

I am an American living in Thailand on a multiple-year Thai work visa and have previously entered PRC on an L visa.  Since the cost of single-entry (3 month) and multiple-entry (1 year) visas are the same for US Citizens (4400), is it difficult to get a multiple-entry (1 year) tourist (L) visa in Bangkok?  Are there any additional documentation requirements?Thanks!

If you have two previous China visas in the past year, it is a little easy for you to get a multiple entry L visa to China. Because you can't prove that you need multiple-entry visa of China, it is hard for you to get the multiple-entry visa, anyhow, try to apply for mutliple-entry visa, the worst thing is that you get a single-entry visa. You can have a try in this way, when you fill the travel itineray on the visa applcation form, you can write that you will visit Mainland China - Hong Kong - Mainland China -Macau -Mainland, then the visa office will know that you need multiple-entry visa.
