Does anyone know if the re-entry permit desk at Phuket International Airport is still operating? This was at the left end of the immigration desks as you depart. Thanks

Summary so far

The original query is about the status of the re-entry permit desk at Phuket International Airport, with several commenters advising against relying on the airport's desk. They suggest obtaining the re-entry permit directly at the immigration office instead. It's recommended to contact Phuket immigration or local airport authorities for confirmation, as responses from local groups have been limited.

My opinion:

GET THE RE-ENTRY PERMIT AT IMMIGRATION

However, you may be much better off posting on a local Facebook group [or potentially the other island groups].

Phuket immigration has a great website:

Honestly, I don't know :( I wouldn't take the chance. I recommend going to Phuket Immigration and get a re-entry permit before you leave tomorrow.

If you don't get a response here, try posting on one of the many island groups as well.

Thanks. I've tried Phuket Expats but no luck, probably because no one is travelling.
