TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation centers around the necessity of a re-entry permit for a multi-entry tourist visa in Thailand. One user expresses uncertainty about the requirement while at the immigration building. Other comments clarify that there is no category specifically named "multi-entry non-immigrant tourist visa"; instead, users generally differentiate between a multi-entry Non-Immigrant visa and a 6-month multi-entry tourist visa. It is indicated that if the visa is multi-entry, the individual can exit and re-enter Thailand without needing a re-entry permit, as long as it is before the visa expiration date.

you have a year long, multi- entry Non-O type visa that is valid for UNLIMITED entries of 90 days each until April 30, 2024

PRINT that PDF file out, hand it with your passport to the person at passport control when you stamp back in and you'll get a new 90 day entry stamp

do they not put a visa number in these PDF visas? Or is it blanked out?

there is no such animal as a "multi-entry non-Immigrant tourist visa" 🙁

you either have a year long, multi-entry Non-Imm visa based on retirement marriage etc

OR

You have a 6 month multi-entry TOURIST visa

your profile shows you are from the UK, meaning you got the visa issued ONLINE, and have a PDF file that is your visa.. What does it say beside the number of entries ?

If it's multiple, you can exit/re-enter all your want up to the date the visa expires (the valid until date on that visa)
