Flying out of Bangkok to Manila for four days before flying back to Bangkok to catch same day flight to London.

I’ve only had my pass a week will I need to apply for another to fly back in to Bangkok.   I will have to recheck bags in

Thanks in advance

Answer summary

The conversation discusses whether the user needs to apply for a new Thailand entry pass (TDAc) after a four-day trip to Manila before returning to Bangkok. The consensus indicates that a new pass is necessary since the user will have to pass through immigration to claim their luggage and check in again. Additionally, a clarification was provided regarding the need for the digital arrival information associated with entry into Thailand.

If you mean TDAc yes you need it if ur going to get ur luggage and check in again! Coz u will have to go through immigration to claim ur baggage!

But if u mean the etravel from pi I don’t think u need one upon leaving the country specially if u have foreign passport! Only apply to Filipinos pp when leaving the country

What pass? Do you mean the digital arrival info? That's for entering the country. It's an arrival information card. So void once you leave, and required to "arrive" in Thailand.
