What happens to a Non-B visa if I exit Cambodia and return to Thailand without a re-entry permit?

Hi All, If you exit Cambodia with a Non-B visa without a re-entry permit, is it automatically cancelled when you return to Thailand, or do you have to go to Chaeng Watthana to cancel it? Thank you so much.

TLDR : Answer Summary
When exiting Cambodia with a Non-B visa without a re-entry permit, whether the visa is automatically cancelled upon returning to Thailand depends on your visa status. If you have been in Thailand for less than 90 days from the initial issue of the visa, no action is needed. However, if you've applied for an extension at a local immigration office, you must cancel that extension upon returning if you wish to apply for a different extension later. If you plan to travel only on tourist status and do not intend to extend your stay, you can leave it as it is.

It depends on what exactly you were on.

Have you been in Thailand for less than 90 days from the initial visa? Then you are fine, you don't need to do anything with your visa stamp.

OR

Have you already applied for an extension at the local immigration office in Thailand? Then you must cancel the latest extension once you are back to Thailand, IF you want to apply for any other extension in the future.

If you will not apply for an extension hereafter, and will travel to Thailand only on a tourist status without extension, you can leave it.

I mean, I have a Non-B visa, and my husband and daughter have Non-O visas. I wonder if I need to cancel their Non-O stamps at immigration, or will they be automatically cancelled when I cancel my Non-B?
