Has anyone experienced airport immigration charging above normal rate for re-entry permits vis a vis local immigration offices, i know there is a small charge for photo and providing forms, but I normally take photo and fill in form before I go and charge is standard for actual re-entry stamp……actual experience rather then heresay please……..

Answer summary

Experiences shared by users indicate that some airports, like Phuket, may charge an additional 200 baht for services such as filling in forms and taking photos. However, if travelers manage these themselves, they should only incur the standard fees: 1000 baht for a single entry and 3800 baht for a multiple entry permit, which aligns with local immigration office prices.

Airports charge 200 baht extra for filling in the forms and doing the photo. If you do both of those yourself it should be the normal price, same as the immigration office: Single entry 1000 baht, multiple entry 3800 baht.

I haven't seen any reports outside of that.

Yeah that's definitely not good. There's a new office on a small island, I forget which one, they recently started charging an extra 500 baht for extensions to "pay for the air conditioning"
