I have a question !

I have non immigrant O from the beginning, and extension based on retirement.

At yearly extension or some trip with re entry permit immigration write different. 

Sometimes they write: non-O

Sometimes they write: non-Re

Sometimes they write: non- Im

I have all three.

This is confusing.

Anybody have some explanation??

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is confused about the different designations mentioned on their visa and re-entry permit for Thailand. While some designations like Non-O refer to the Non-Immigrant O visa, Non-Re pertains to the Re-Entry Permit, and Non-Im also relates to the Non-Immigrant visas. Several community members clarified that these terms represent various types of visas and permits related to their situation but do not affect their official visa status.

i will try to Explain:

Non Immigrant O-A visa is 1 year valid and multiple entry

Non Immigrant O visa , could be 1 year valid and multiple entry

Non Immigrant O visa, most of the time single entry and 90 days stay

Extension of Stay based on older than 50 years, no entries and 1 year.

Glass of cold water, nothing to do with visa but....

Call it all RETIREMENT VISA and you have a nice drink searching for what is in your passport. Correct terminology is needed on a page like this, or make a picture, take out all the personal details and show the passport page.

Non O is short for the initial Non Immigrant O visa, non-re is short for the Re-Entry Permit you used to come back into the country and non-im is short for again the Non Immigrant via you had, it would be nice if they all use the same letter code as reference to the visa or permit used. On the other hand it does not have any effect on us as we know we have a visa and we are not searching the passport to connect the stamps with a visa or a permit.

Is my re-entry stamp normal for a multi-entry retirement visa in Thailand?
