Reentry Permit Chiang Mai Airport Visa Procedures Immigration Expat Life in Thailand

Reentry Permit - Chiang Mai Airport.

Exiting via Chiang Mai airport today, we went through the security check at 7:45am and located on the left side alongside the security point is the desk for reentry stamps. This is before you get to the immigration desk.  We had our paperwork ready but it still took a good 15 minutes to complete. We were the first in line this morning but by the time we had our stamps there were at least 5 people behind (or to put it another way, an hour+ wait)

If getting a reentry from the airport it is a lot quicker than at Promenada but get there early!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The process for obtaining a reentry permit at Chiang Mai Airport involves checking in at a dedicated desk located before the immigration desk. Although the poster was the first in line, it still took about 15 minutes to complete the process. It's noted that the reentry procedure at the airport is faster than at Promenada, but arriving early is advisable due to potential wait times as more people may arrive.

, if not actually 24 hours, it will be open before your flight by a couple of hours or more. We took a very early flight and checked through early just to give time to get the paperwork done.

, it’s not obvious where it is as you don’t see it when you go through the security. We didn’t see it until we mentioned it to the immigration guy who pointed us in the right direction! Our first time and I’m sure there will be a LOT of people who experience it for the first time! 🙂
