How does re-entry work with a 60-day single entry tourist visa in Thailand?

I always thought that a SETV ment exactly that.

in that case it may make sense, yes. You should be able to get a second single re-entry permit on the same visa, 1000B at immigration or the airport, I don't believe there is any issue getting a second one. The "single entry" applies to the initial entry, it doesn't relate to re-entry permits.

. You can leave and re-enter if you buy a re-entry permit. It will only keep your existing 'admitted until' stamp alive.

Maha you can buy a re-entry permit as Steve says but it rarely makes sense on a SETV, people who buy these are usually on longer-term visas where it makes sense that they want to keep their current stay active.

It usually doesn't make sense for people on a SETV as when they go out and come back they usually get another 30 days visa-free at the airport anyway. A re-entry permit only keeps your *current* "admitted until" date active, you don't get a *new* 60 days on re-entry like you would with a METV, so in most cases you would be as well just coming back on an exempt entry. Maybe post exactly what it is you want to do, and your nationality, and people could give better advice.

You can buy 1 or multi re-entry permit
