TLDR : Answer Summary

If you have a DTV visa, it is a multiple re-entry visa, which means you do not need to apply for a re-entry permit when leaving and re-entering Thailand within the 180-day period.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

As the DTV is a multiple re-entry visa it is not possible to apply for a re-entry permit.

@Greg *******

do you know if you can get a re-entry permit so you don't have to file a new TM30 because you nipped over to Da Nang for a few days but will return to the same address?
