TLDR : Answer Summary

To apply for a re-entry permit in Thailand, you'll need to visit your local immigration office or the airport if you're flying out. Bring your passport along with copies of the data page, entry stamp, current visa extension, and departure card (TM6). You'll also need to fill out a TM8 application form and provide a passport photo. The cost is approximately 1000 THB for a single re-entry and 3800 THB for a multiple re-entry permit at the immigration office, or slightly higher fees at the airport.

and ON that note we're done, if the O/P can't figure out how to get a re-entry by now, they need to not be traveling 😛

Sorry to hijack this but do you have to state the date of reentry or can it be used any time

A re-entry permit just means your existing extension will not be invalidated when you leave. You don't get any extra time because you got a re-entry stamp, you're still running on the stamp you have in your passport. If you're not back before your extension runs out then it's gone, whether you have a re-entry permit or not.

Just go to immigration fill out form and hand over cash.

You could also do it at the airport, but better local immigration

go to the immigration office that you use in your area and buy one, a single re-entry is 1000baht or a multiple is 3800baht

Bring your passport, you need copies of your data page, the entry stamp, your current extension, your departure card (TM6) and a filled out TM8 application for re-entry with one passport photo stuck on it

OR

if you're flying out of Suvarnabhumi you can buy one the day you fly out just past security at the International Departure 2 area (single 1200 baht, multiple 4000) and you don't need anything but your passport and proof you're flying out

Tod Daniels. If applying at an immigration office, do you have to use your regular office, or can you just rock up at any IO and get a re-entry permit?

some offices won't sell you a re-entry permit if you didn't get your extension from them.
