TLDR : Answer Summary
A user asked about the meaning of 'no p 18' noted by an immigration officer on their departure stamp from Thailand. Responses suggest that this notation typically refers to the visa details found on page 18 of the passport, with some users confirming it might indicate the presence of a Non-O visa, or it could be instructions for when the user returns. Various interpretations and light-hearted comments about standard practices at the immigration check-ins were also shared.

i would have never guessed based on trying to interpret the sloppy handwritting itself. But the context does makes sense 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Just be happy and enjoy your time. Just check if the extension period is OK and don't think about handwritten things. I hear from a lot of people who have more or less the same on their stamps.

When you will come back, it is an indication for the officer to check page 18, where your visa and Re-entry permit are I guess
