TLDR : Answer Summary

When exiting Thailand on an OA visa, a re-entry permit does not need to be stamped at the time of exit. However, it is necessary to obtain the re-entry permit before you leave the country to ensure that your current visa status remains valid for re-entry.

You don't need a re-entry permit to leave Thailand. But, you need to get a re-entry permit on your passport BEFORE you leave Thailand, to keep your current stamp "alive" and enter Thailand again on it.

No it doesn’t get stamped exiting, but you need to have it before exiting to reenter Thailand to maintain your visa status

You probably won’t get any ink stamps at all when you’re leaving now.

re-entry permits are stamped on re-entry, not on exit
