I had 60 day tourist visa and spent about 30 days of it then moved other countries.

If I want to re enter again do I have to prepare something?

Also they haven't stamped my passport for the first entry.

Answer summary

A user inquires about re-entering Thailand after spending part of a 60-day tourist visa and whether they need to prepare anything for the re-entry, given their passport was not stamped upon departure. A commenter clarifies that the user likely received an entry stamp but may not have one visible due to using automated gates. Furthermore, they explain that upon re-entry, the user will receive a visa exempt entry if from a qualifying country.

You certainly did receive a stamp from your first entry. You probably used the automated gates on your way out so you wouldn't have an exit stamp. That's normal.

You'll receive a visa exempt entry (not a tourist visa) every time you enter without a visa if you're from a visa exempt country.

It means for the remaining of 60 days I can re enter Thailand without anything

You received a 60-days stay permit stamp in your passport when you entered visa-exempt. When you exit Thailand after 30 days, your 60-days stay permit will become invalid. So when you want to re-enter Thailand visa-exempt, you again will get stamped in for a 60-days stay permit. But you cannot repeat this infinitely. At some point after two or three visa-exempt entries, the border official will pull you aside and ask you about your intentions, to find out if you are a "real" tourist, or if you are misusing the visa-free policy for illegal work or for a longstay. At this point you might be asked for the "3 famous proofs": proof of accomodation, cash 20,000 THB or equivalent, and an onward travel proof out of Thailand within 60 days

no stamp upon entry into Thailand - this means the border officer was in the wrong. He is supposed to stamp you in. In case he forgot it, you should visit your Immigration ASAP and clarify this situation

no it means that if you are entitled to you will get a fresh 60 days when you enter. If you are not entitled you will need a new visa (unless you are entitled to a 15 day visa on entry which you need to purchase)
