ORIGINAL POSTERGood Morning . I have a question? This Sunday I landed at Suvarnabhumi. I have a non “O biased on marriage. I also had a reentry permit.When I went through immigration they did not stamp my passport or the arrival card on entry into Thailand . Is this going to be normal now ? After I went through immigration and I seen no entry stamp I went back and the officer said it was ok .

does not sound correct, There must be a stamp inside your passport with date of entry and Admitted until date.

There is no visa on that picture. Only an Extension of Stay. As I said you need an entry stamp. Go to the Immigration Office in your area and explain this and get an entry stamp.

Than you not even have a VISA but an Extension of Stay a big stamp you got from Immigration. using the correct terminology helps a lot if you want information. Here the difference between a visa and an Extension of Stay. BTW you never ever renew this, you apply every year for a NEW Extension of Stay:

Robert *******
@Francis *******
That is what every Police officer or Immigration Officer is going to tell you if you DO NOT have the entry stamp. But I can only say, fix this at the nearest Immigration Office. Good luck.Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERI will never enter a country illegally
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Robert ******
no I did not you don’t understand what I just trying to explainRobert *******
Without an entry stamp, you simply entered Thailand illegal.
Robert *******
Try to explain than? You keep on telling you don't have an entry stamp. Well, you need an entry stamp and if it is not in your passport visit your local Immigration Office as soon as possible to correct this.
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTEROk Robert sir .I respect your advice but I don’t think you understand Sir
Robert *******
Nice for you but having a Non O has nothing to do with getting an entry stamp when you enter Thailand. Check your passport page by page, the officer is wrong there must be a stamp in your passport.
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERI talked to an immigration officer and said it was ok with no stamp in
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERNo but I have non o
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERThis is the first time I never was giving a stamp into Thailand
Robert *******
Yes, when you enter Thailand you get a square stamp with date of entry Admitted until ../../.. date, like this example. Do you have this stamp?
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERI have traveled in out of Thailand for about 9 years
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTEROut
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Robert ******
when you land in Thailand you always get a stamp in when you leave you get the sameRobert *******
No stamps or Yessss I have that. Can you please make up your mind.
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERAlso passport
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Robert ******
there is no stamp when I landed in my passportRobert *******
Okay, so you have the entry stamp in your passport but not on your TM 6 Departure card. Not having the stamp on the TM 6 Departure card is no problem.
Robert *******
What is inside my passport does not going to help you. Check your passport, there must be an entry stamp.
Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTER@Robert ******

Francis ********
ORIGINAL POSTERYessss I have that . I just traveled to the USA and came back. Ok everytime i entered Thailand i always giving a stamp in that’s the date you land in my passport. And out no matter what visa or non o
