Hi there all 🙂

Am I able to go and get a re-entry permit at immigration on behalf of my wife? Or does she have to be there in person?

Many thanks

It's generally required for your wife to be present in person to obtain a re-entry permit at immigration. One commenter shared their experience where they were eventually able to get permits for their family after convincing a manager, but it is recommended that she attends to avoid any potential issues.

She is supposed to go in person. I went once to get permits for my wife and kid, and got referred to a manager with whom I pleaded. She was stern, but relented and I got the permits. Best that she goes if you want to avoid hassle, or get it at the airport.
