hi everybody

i just got the re-entry permit to keep my non-o 90 days " alive ".

want to ask :

1) when i leave thailand do i need to tell the immigration officer who stamp the depature stamp that i have an re-entry permit or they will know from their computer system ?

2) if i enter back to thailand do i need to tell the immigration officer that i have an re-entry permit so that they will stamp the " 1st duration depature date that i enter on my non-o " or they can see from their computer system and stamp back the same depature that i use to enter on my on non-o first day ?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When departing Thailand with a re-entry permit, you do not need to inform the immigration officer, as they can see it in their system. Upon returning, it is also unnecessary to mention the re-entry permit, but it is advised to verify that the immigration stamp reflects the correct duration on your Non-O visa.

when leaving, you will probably not be stamped out when you leave through the automatic gates . . . . . . And when you return, just make sure - on the spot! - the Immigration officer stamps you in correctly until the expiry date you received when you first entered on the 90-days Non-Imm-O Visa. As this is the furthest date your re-entry permit allows you to get stamped back in
