ORIGINAL POSTER

I have had to cut a visit to Thailand short. Entered on a 90 day non o visa, if I obtain a re-entry permit would this prevent applying for a new visa and entering on it upon return?

TLDR : Answer Summary

If you leave Thailand on a 90-day Non-O visa and obtain a re-entry permit, it allows you to keep your current visa 'alive' until it expires. However, you must return to Thailand before your visa stamp's expiration date to maintain its validity and apply for any extensions or new visas. The re-entry permit does not extend the duration of your visa.

Basically, yes. But you need to return to Thailand on or before the date on your current stamp, as the re-entry permit will also have the same validity, and apply for your extension.

So, if you plan to back to Thailand before your current stamp expires, get a re-entry permit before you leave.

A re-entry permit works like "keep your current stamp alive", it wouldn't add any day more than you have now. So cannot do the "save the remaining days for later" thing.
