How do I obtain a re-entry permit for my daughter's passport in Thailand?

@Graham ********

It might take up to 40 minutes!

I would strongly recommend to get the re-entry permit from the immigration office a few days prior to the departure!

@Graham ********

, depends on the time and day. You may allow 15-20 mins extra. Sometimes no queue, still takes 10 minutes. Sometimes a few people, take less than 10 minutes. Sometime 5-6 people are waiting.

I guess it depends on season. Never done it my self so I really can’t give you a better answer than your own guess. Personally I would have been at the airport approximately four hours before departure.

I just done it a few days ago. It takes between 10-30min. You apply, pay, they take your photo, you give documents, you sit and wait. At the desk that says are-entry permit prior immigration before heading to your gate. It’s easy. Important to know that They take only cash. Its important to do so she don’t loses her extension when she re enters the country.

If you want to be ready and make sure, do it at your immigration office a week before departure.
