Looking for opinions on re-entry permits.

Is it better to get one at immigration or at the airport?

Are they doing them at the airport? If so, what do I need to bring with me to get one?

I have never got a re-entry permit before so any advice appreciated. I am on a non-b visa. Thanks.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around the convenience of obtaining a re-entry permit in Thailand, comparing the options of getting it at the immigration office versus at the airport. Users express a preference for airport acquisition due to proximity and time-saving benefits, particularly for those who live a distance from immigration offices.
