I'm on a non-o extension, my question is can I travel to Langkawi without getting a re-entry permit or would I need to get one. Thanks.
Answer summary
If you are on a Non-O extension and plan to travel to Langkawi, Malaysia, you will need to obtain a re-entry permit. Without it, you will not be able to return to Thailand on your Non-O visa, as it will become invalid upon leaving the country.

You can travel without, but can't return on the Non-O.

Yes, you can travel wherever you like, but your non-o will be void.
