UPDATE for Tourist Visa Re-entry permit, Hua Hin:

My original post is close for commenting: [members only]/

Went today to BluPort mall and made a quick visit to the Immigration office downstairs. Very little office with a big writing "One stop service".

My initial intention was to visit and read their required documentation about Re-entry permits (particularly interested in the TM.30)

There was a lady there helping others with documents scanning.

She saw me somewhat clueless and came to me and offered assistance.

Long story short:

* NO TM.30 needed

* NO TM.8 Re-entry form needed (the IO prints out one from a printer under his/her desk with a photo on it taken by a camera on the desk)

* NO Photos needed (taken with camera on the spot)

* DOC's needed: Passport and TM.6 departure card. They will scan & print everything needed on the spot

* Price: 1000 baht for Single Re-entry permit

* Waiting time: 20min

Left with Re-entry permit in my passport.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A recent visit to the immigration office in BluPort mall, Hua Hin, revealed that for a Tourist Visa Re-entry permit, you do not need TM.30 or TM.8 forms, and photos are taken on-site. Required documents include a passport and TM.6 departure card. The cost is 1000 baht, with a typical waiting time of around 20 minutes.

You are entering on a tourist visa <- so in the eyes of the thaiz you're a tourist. As long as you use an address in the area where you're going to get the re-entry permit you'll be fine.

So it's easier in BP than at my local immigration office? Go figure.
