ORIGINAL POSTERCan I get a reentry permit at the airport, prior to departure? Suvarnabhumi.
TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can obtain a reentry permit at Suvarnabhumi Airport before departing Thailand. It is noted to be quick and efficient, generally taking around 10-15 minutes. Ensure that you have enough time before your flight, and downloading the necessary form in advance can help expedite the process. The cost is typically around 1,200 THB for a single entry, and you may incur additional fees if you require assistance with filling out the form or need a passport photo on-site. It’s advised to arrive at the airport with sufficient time to navigate the immigration process.

I wish Immigration had told me this as I left on my OA visa. I lost it. Why don't they do their job?

You can do it easy at AIRPORT and very quickly.

Is the immigration booth up the escalator and after baggage check. Thanks.

Cash only. They charge a little extra for filling in the form and photo. Tell the IO you need a permit and they will direct you to the desk. I've never seen it busy

I did it at Siracha immigration a few weeks ago. 1000 baht and pretty painless. When leaving bkk for Singapore on the 13th I was happy I already had the stamp as it looked like about 25 people in line for the stamp at the immigration booth area. 1200 baht at bkk immigration. Sometimes I've heard the line is short. Arriving back on the 15th with my tourist VISA went well. GL

ORIGINAL POSTERRoger Wayne did you need a photo?

Mike Orbon I did not have the typical visa photo. You can see the documents I used here. Not sure if the airport is different

Yes. Its costs a little more than if you do it at an immigration office!
Jim ********
John Lawrence not sure if it costs more, don't think so 🤔
John **********
Jim Duggan Re-entry stamps in Thailand cost the same in base fees at both immigration offices and airports (1,000 THB single / 3,800 THB multiple). However, getting the stamp at the airport can cost more if you require photo services or form assistance, which may incur an additional 200 THB fee. I was wrong, had it around the wrong way!
Jim ********
John Lawrence thanks for clearing that up

Jim Duggan No problem, Jim, its all about helping people 😀

Yeah, easy. Down in the corner, right before you go through immigration. They’ll even fill in the form for you for an extra 200 baht (if you don’t want to or have not downloaded it prior). It’s 1900, or 2100 if they do it (I think) and you’ll need passport pics. It takes less than 10 mins.
Graham ******
Graeme Hunter correct, using International Departures 2. If they complete the form it is 200B extra so 1200B for a single-entry.

If I came for 60 days plus 30 day extension in May then came back to the uk in July then would I be able to repeat that in October to December back to Thailand ??
Martyn *********
Jack Peters only 7 day extra 7 extra days given to leave after extension refused doesn't look good on passport
Simon *******
Jack Peters to answer your question,no you won't get a 30 day extension for a second time, buy a 90 day visa this is why Thailand is tightening up on extensions
Richard **********
Jack Petersno. 30 days and you apply for extension

Re-entry permit only applies to retirement visa, what are you talking about???

Alex Ve I’m asking that if I was coming back to the uk for 3 months after being there 90 days then would it not be possible to do another 90 days?? In effect I would be in Thailand for 180 days per year and 180 days in the uk.

You can and it's better, because it's faster and easier than in any local immigration.
Donald **********
Paweł Chruściel Not if you’re doing your Non O extension at your local Immigration office and can get the multi-entry simultaneously.
Paweł ***********
Donald Campbell if you do simultaneously, but here we have very precise question and your comment is useless and unrelated to the query.
Donald **********
Paweł Chruściel You’re clearly stuck in a rigid, Soviet mindset if you think my answer is useless. It is offered as an option and was also directed at the author of the question. If he wasn’t able to do it at the airport, where else would he do it and would he require further questions? I’ve seen people posting similar questions when they’ve just done their extension but not a simultaneous re-entry permit. Yes, it does happen.
