Question about stamp. I have a non b single (90 days) with a multientry stamp. My visa is valid to 7 may. When I now arrived in Thailand 28 Feb my stamp say admitted untill 7 may. Should I not suppose to get 90 days on the stamp? Or do I still have 90 days? If I leave Thailand again and come back let's say 1 may will I get 90 days or just 6 until 7 may when the visa "expire"?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The post discusses the confusion regarding the validity of a Non-B visa with a multi-entry stamp for foreigners in Thailand. The user entered Thailand on a Non-B visa on February 7, receiving a 90-day entry stamp, which is effective until May 7. Upon re-entering Thailand on February 28, the user is unsure if they should receive another 90 days or if the remaining validity applies. Responses clarify that the original 90 days remains unchanged, and the re-entry permit does not reset the count; re-entering on May 1 will result in only the remaining days up to May 7.

Tod so to the original question. My stamp is correct? And if I leave and arrive let's say 1 may I need to exit 7 may?

Correct (y) the exipration date of ANY "admitted until" stamp you get when you arrive here will be the 7th of May.

and you were stamped in correctly when you entered on the 28th of Feb with the SAME expiration date you got when you entered on the Non-B visa the first time. May 7th.

You don't get a new 90 days every time you stamp into the country on a single entry 90 day Non-B and a re-entry permit. all the re-entry permit does is get you stamped in until the original 90 day stamp's expiration date

That stamp showing you entered on the 28th of Feb wasn't when you FIRST came into the country on the Non-B visa, was it?

That was when you re-entered the country after already entering on the visa and getting the re-entry permit right?

You don't get ANY more days than the original 90 days you were stamped in on

What was the original date you entered the country on the Non-b visa?

, then you were stamped in correctly, and got 90 days when you arrived here the first time.

A re-entry permit doesn't ADD any days to your original 90 days, it just gets you stamped in until that date

As far as the validity of the visa itself, forget that date because all it meant is you had until then to enter the country and get stamped in for 90 days.

The way your re-entry permit works is, when you re-turn to thailand you will be stamped in for the same expiration date (90 days from the date you originally arrived).
