ORIGINAL POSTERHi, I need advice next month I'm planning to go back to visit my family but I have wp so what I have to do to not lose my wp and my working visa? Thanks 🙂
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is planning to visit family abroad and seeks advice on how to maintain their work permit (wp) and working visa. Comments suggest checking for a multi-entry extension and obtaining a re-entry stamp before leaving Thailand to avoid losing their work permit. The user thanks the community for the guidance.

Not sure. Seems like that the old schedule of opening/closing hours is still effective without any changes.

is it 24hrs or still closed from midnight to 5am? I have a flight out later at 3am.

Correct!
They have now closed this office. You need to get the re-entry permit from the hall where you queue up to have your passport stamped. As this is after security check, you won’t be able to get the permit if you are not flying the same day.

ORIGINAL POSTEROkay thank you for the advices 🤗

That sounds like you have an Extension of Stay based on working.
@Has***
explained, cost 3.800 Thb for multiple entry or 1.000 Thb for Single Entry, on Suvarnabhumi Airport also 200 Thb service charge.Hassan *******
Get single (or multiple) re-entry stamp BEFORE leaving Thailand (it's before you do immigration) at Suvarnabhumi Airport. Bring along a photo of yours and THB (fee for re-entry stamp) - it takes no more than 30 min.

If you can explain the stamp or sticker in your passport it would be more easy. What do you call a working Visa?
Dustin *******
Do you have a multi entry extension of stay?
