I have to renew my Non-O retirement visa in February (BKK Immigration). In May I’m leaving for 4 months. Can I renew and do the re-entry permit at the same time? If yes do I need 2 appointments with different officers or do they do it at the same time? Bonus question: if I renew my visa, does the 90 days counter start new?
Answer summary
Yes, you can renew your Non-O retirement visa and apply for a re-entry permit at the same time, but you will need to visit different sections of the immigration office for each process. First, apply for your year extension in Section L-1, then after receiving the extension stamp, go to Section C-2 for the re-entry permit. Additionally, the 90-day reporting will only reset when you re-enter Thailand after traveling.

You would apply for the year extension and once they stamp it into your passport you would then apply for the re-entry permit

At Chaengwattana in Bangkok you get the year extension issued in Section L-1 and you buy a re-entry permit in Section C-2, so two different sections.

Once you get the new extension inked in and your passport back from section L-1, go down and make a copy of the data page of your passport, your new extension, your most recent entry stamp to thailand, fill out the Tm-8 re-entry application and get a queue for Section C-2..
