Hey 😃

Are you able to leave thailand for a few days with the under consideration stamp for the one year extension ? With a re entry permit are you able to come in and out during that one month waiting period or not? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary

The original question inquires if it is possible to leave Thailand for a few days while holding an 'under consideration' stamp for a one-year extension, specifically regarding the use of a re-entry permit. Community responses suggest that while leaving is possible, it may require reapplying for the extension upon return. It is recommended to consult with the local immigration office for definitive guidance.

So by leaving even with a re entry permit the visa is basically voided?

correct. I spoke to immigration about it as wanted to fly home for surprise birthday but was told I can't while under consideration. As would void visa application.
