Is the re-entry permit counter at Suvarnabhumi Airport open every day, and can I get a re-entry permit for a tourist visa?

Hi Everyone,

Does anyone know if re-entry permit counter at Suvarnabhumi works 7 days per week?

E.g. I’m flying out this Saturday - will I be able to get a stamp there?

Also, just want to double check if I can make re-entry permit for a tourist visa (I checked at Phuket immigration before and they said yes, but I will be flying out of Bangkok).

Sorry, maybe my question is silly, just want to make sure I get it all right and I do not have to run to Chaengwattana tomorrow or Friday for that.

P.S. I am aware that re-entry permit on a tourist visa doesn’t add days to it, that’s totally fine with me. My only worry is that I can make it at the airport on Saturday 😊

Thank you so much for your advice 🙏🏻

TLDR : Answer Summary
The re-entry permit counter at Suvarnabhumi Airport is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If the counter is unmanned, you can ask a Thai Immigration Officer for assistance. You can obtain a re-entry permit for a tourist visa, but it will only be valid until the date of your current entry stamp, making the original visa void.

You can get Re-entry Permit for tourist visa but keep in mind it's only up to the date of your current entry stamp. The actual visa is now void.

Yes the re-entry permit desk at BKK Suvarnabhumi Airport Bangkok is Open 24 hours 7 days a week...

IF the desk is unmanned, Just ask a Thai Immigration Officer and they will Open it for you.

The fee is 1200 Thai baht for the single Re-entry permit. ...if you have them do the paperwork and picture.
