How can my daughter obtain a multiple re-entry permit while on an 8-week ED visa in Thailand?

Question

My daughter (Singapore passport). is on a non-immigrant, single entry “ED” (educational) visa, and just started a 8 week unpaid internship in Bangkok. She want to apply for a multiple re-entry permit which will be valid till September 2017. . But was told that it would be difficult to get the multiple re-entry permit because the internship is only for 8 weeks while the multiple re-entry permit is issued for 1 year. Greatly appreciate any information on how to get the multiple re-entry permit? Thanks.

How long does it take to process since she will have to take time off? and just to confirm, she doesn't need any documents from her interning company,

Thank you

Bus 66 goes there. It goes from Southern Bus Terminal to The Government Complex via Purple MRT Tao Poon (Blue MRT > Bang Sue > shuttle to Tao Poon station > walk 5 minutes to bus stop > Bus 66 to immigration)

Thank you Lloyd for the reply. May I know where the immigration building in Bangkok is, what are the documents required, any forms to fill in and does my daughter have to apply in person?

Just pop to Immigration and purchase. 1k Baht single and 3.8k multi.

Nope, a re-entry permit, be it single or multiple is valid for the duration of the permission to stay.
