Do I need to apply separately for a re-entry permit after renewing my NON-O retirement visa in Thailand?
Renewed my non-o retirement extension in January. Just now realized they never asked about re-entry and there is no re-entry stamp in my passport? Oversight??
Answer summary
When renewing a non-O visa in Thailand, obtaining a re-entry permit is the applicant's responsibility. The re-entry permit is not automatically included with the visa extension and must be applied for separately. A single entry re-entry stamp costs 1000 baht, while a multiple entry stamp costs 3800 baht. Expats are advised to request this permit if they plan to leave Thailand, as it is necessary for re-entry. It can be obtained either at the immigration office or at the airport before departure.

There was, that would be your mistake not theirs. Most Immigration Officers tend to prompt you, but not all will. Up to you.
A re-entry Stamp is something you need to request in addition to your Visa. Go get it back at the Office or at BKK airport. Available at Immigration 1.
Single entry 1000Baht
Multi entry 3800Baht

Yes, oversight, by you unfortunately. You have to apply for either a single or multiple.

A extension of a Non O visa doesn't come with a re-entry permit, you must buy that separately, either as a single or multiple entry permit.

If your leaving just get one at airport

it's up to you to decide whether or not you're going to leave the country and come back

It's 1000 baht for a single entry re-entry stamp and 3800 baht for a multiple re-entry stamp. I got my multiple re-entry stamp last week at the Immigration Office... a relatively simple process

Freddie Percival Best done at the airport on the day you leave. Very quick and much less nonsense than at Immigration.

if you want to leave the country then u gotta pay extra $ for the re entry stamp. easy peasy
Graham ******
You apply and pay for that separately after your extension is inked in. You can get one when exiting the country at the airport (but not at a land border).

The re entry stamp is an additional stamp after renewal (only needed to re enter Thailand if you leave) I wish they would offer a renewal complete with multi re entry to save getting 2 stamps all the time ... pay the extra but save space in passport.

re entry is down to you, doesnt come with the visa
Tom *******
You must ask and pay for it when renewing
I would see no harm in going back to immigration and explain mistake

Tom Whyte there is no mistake. Fill in TM8, photocopy of first page and page with latest extension stamp, current visa stamp and one photo. 1000 baht single and 3800 baht for multiple.

Sebastian Barrow did you even read the post

Tom Whyte yes. Why would the IO ask if you wanted a re entry permit? My post just stated what the OP should have provided.
John **********
Why would they ask? You have to apply for a re-entry permit

OP@John *********
oh. I thought you either got a single or multiple re-entry with each extension, whichever you choose. Didn’t realize there was an option of no re-entry permit. Thanks

@Tom ******
No extension comes with a re-entry permit. It's something that you have to apply for and pay for each year.Rene ********
Tom Feahr 1000 baht in local immigration office. Probably closer to 2000 in the airport prior to leaving. Simple!

Tom Feahr no
