Just to let you guys know ..

I had to return to the UK week after I arrived .

I asked a question ...

Could I leave thailand and return on a

Non o visa ( 3 month )

Answer is yes . I got a re entry permit

From a little desk at passport control

( after you clear security ) the cost was 1200 baht . Took a bit of time allow your self a bit extra time ..

still valid to original date

This can be probably done at other immigration offices

The author successfully obtained a re-entry permit for 1200 baht from a desk at passport control, and mentions that this is valid until the original visa expiry date.

What is the replacement? You’ve got a fill-in online now before you will arrive in Thai Land two days before it used to be called a dtac

Thank you for this. I'm going to Thailand next month on a 90 day Non-O retirement visa.

I have no intention of applying for the 1 year extension.

If I wanted to go to Vietnam for a few days and then return to Thailand until the end of my 90 day visa, can I just get the re-entry permit as you've described it?

Robin Hind airport charges a little more because they produce your photocopies. I think that is fair it is us to blame that we didn't get one at our local Immigration office ahead of time.
