TLDR : Answer Summary
A re-entry permit is required for foreigners who wish to leave Thailand and return while holding a long-stay visa. You can apply for it at the local immigration office or at Suvarnabhumi Airport before departure. The permit is a half-page stamp in your passport, valid for the duration of your current visa. The fees are 1000 baht for a single re-entry and 3800 baht for multiple entries.

You buy a re-entry permit at the immigration office that serves the area where you live (where you applied for your extension) OR at Suvarnabhumi Airport before you fly out

It is a half page stamp in your passport that is valid for the length of time your current stamp is good for. It lets you exit/re-enter the country and get stamped back in to that date.

A single re-entry permit is 1000baht at immigrations (1200 at Suvarnabhumi) and a multiple re-entry permit is 3800baht at immigrations (4000 at Suvarnabhumi)

Looks like this

, and are you on an "extension of stay" from the thai immigration office or are you still on the original 90 days from the Non-ED visa ?

@David ******
then IF you are leaving you get a single re-entry permit and it will be valid only as long as your current stamp is <- meaning you get back IN to the country before that date and you'll be stamped in until then.
