I just arrived in Thailand with my non b multi (1 year). Immigration stamped me in for 30 days exemption so I had to go back and they corrected it to 90 days (he even showed me the date in the computer) but what I want to know is if he forgot to stamp "used" on my visa. They have precisely did that in all my past visas. Do they stamp used in this visa or not? Do I need to go to immigration and really check he I am my non b visa or not?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquired whether their Non-B Multiple Entry Visa would receive a 'used' stamp after entering Thailand, as they noticed this on previous visas. Commenters clarified that for a Multiple Entry Visa, such a stamp is not applied. Instead, the visa remains valid until the specified expiration date, indicating that it has not been used until a border crossing is made, verified by checking the entries noted on the visa.

If it's a multi entry visa they wont stamp 'used' on it. Only on the single entry visa

If your Non Immigrant Visa is valid for 1 year that means it is a Multiple Entry Visa, you can check on the visa: under the No of Entries is the letter M. If correct your Visa stays valid until the enter before date/valid until date mentioned on the visa and is not used/invalid till that date.

Yes, a single you can only use one time, a multiple you can use as many times as you like till the enter before/valid until date.

I did get I "used" stamp on my first non b single. But the reason was maybe because it was a single. Now it's multi son not used? Is that correct?
