This may be nothing at all but I was just wondering if anyone had any info on my stamp I received at the airport. I was just a little concerned as they seemed to have a good look through my passport and I noticed they wrote my exit date in pen and then there is some kind of letter or initial next to it the only reason I ask I was with 2 other people at the same desk and they all got the normal ink stamp on there date to exit. same as any others in my passport. Just checking its nothing to worry about. Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The concern regarding a handwritten exit date and a letter next to it on the entry stamp is generally seen as normal procedure. It's a common practice for immigration officials to note specific details for travelers, especially for visitors from countries eligible for visa-exempt entry. Some users mentioned that the letters could represent airline codes, but if you're not on a back-to-back visa exempt entry or tourist visa, there shouldn't be a reason to worry.

I noticed that they sometimes write the letters of the airline like TG for Thai Airways....

Looks normal..

They noted you are from a country that gets a 30 day visa exempt entry ผ.30 under the visa class and gave you until the 14th of May.

Sorry I don't know what the character means in the brackets though :/

Unless you're living here on back-2-back visa exempt entries or tourist visas I wouldn't worry about it though.

Character in the brackets the signature of the officer maybe?
