@Charlie ******
Consider the Philippines?

They all speak English no dual prices great weather better beaches and the female population is 20 years younger on average

Just saying

thanks i really didn’t understand the re-entry terminology but now you have explained it i am happy i have that stamp in my passport so it should be hassle free

@Nongnuch *******
I understand the multiple entry stamp which was offered to me for 4000 baht but I only needed the single entry which I purchased for 1000 baht at immigration office

So that is basically all I need to leave Thailand and return?

@Nongnuch *******
that is the exact same visa as mine with a single entry stamp

Regarding the re-entry is this what it is ? Do i need anything else

@Nongnuch *******
Thank you for your new advice and yes I did buy a 1000 baht re-entry permit when I applied for my retirement visa in Jomtien which i intend to use in the return from Laos

My purpose for going to Laos is actually a wedding of a close friend

do I need a re-entry stamp to keep my current visa (retirement) valid with the same conditions?

@Bob *********
maybe you should ask the reason why I am going to Laos in the first place without jumping to conclusions

Could it be for a friends wedding ? a funeral of a relative ? The reason is irrelevant to you because you didn’t even answer the question
