Just for clarification. Do you mean getting the re-entry permit at the airport itself or at the airport immigration office?

From another forum:

Re-entry permit at CNX airport has moved from:

-BEFORE the security check on the left

to

-AFTER the security check on the right.

(The counter before security is still there, but they will direct you to the one after security)

Will depend on if it is a direct international flight from Chiang Mai as to whether you can use immigration at the airport. Everything can be done there including the forms and photos.

Examples:

You fly from Chiang Mai to Bangkok

You fly from Bangkok to another country

You must get your re-entry permit at the Bangkok airport

or

You are flying from Chiang Mai direct to another country

You can get your re-entry permit from the Chiang Mai airport

, it depends on your type of tickets, not the itinerary

Even if you go through BKK airport, if your tickets are connecting type, you get re-entry permit and are stamped out from the country at CNX.

If your tickets are not connected, you need to get re-entry permit and are stamped out from Thailand at BKK.

I have never used that re-entry permit counter

BUT

I'd bet dollars to durian that they have the TM8 application for re-entry forms there for people who show up to buy one before flying out internationally

Hopefully someone who has used that re-entry counter will weigh in with the answer
