Sadly, the PDF available for download from that link is a collection of the images of 12 scanned pages. That procedure seems standard for the Immigration Bureau. I used OCR (optical character reading) to convert to a text PDF form which text can be copied, eg for pasting into a translation app. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1mhXdZFCXUs1zXghHWVjg0mzGeOlftr8F/view?usp=drive_link It will take me some time to do the Englissh translation using Google Translate and put it into a table similar to the Thai original.

It is 15 days, but better take that as 14 days because of the way some immigration offices are counting it.

Updated to add Immigration Bureau Order 14-2025 on visa inspection and change of visa type for aliens entering the Kingdom

The hotel does not send a certificate to immigration. They notify immigration of the foreigner's arrival at the hotel.

If you pronounced natal the way you wrote it here, I am surprised that they understood it. Perhaps you showed them the Thai translation of sugar on your phone.

The "chat gpt" got this wrong. The latest information I have seen on the timing of the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC), also known as the "TM.6 online" system is the following: Source: https://www.nationthailand.com/news/tourism/40045807 Please note differece between "…will require…" and "…expected to be…"

No details are available yet. The latest news seem to be that "... The Immigration Bureau has also collaborated with other agencies to streamline travel processes, integrating the TDAC with: The Department of Consular Affairs' E-Visa system ..."

TM?

On bookonwardticket.com it says that their onward tickets come with a PNR code and that this will serve the purpose for visa application. On the tickets, this code is often referred to as booking reference, reservation number, etc (https://www.altexsoft.com/blog/pnr-explained), even on fully paid flight tickets.

As the OP has already been given the answer he sought and to forestall more off-topic posting, this topic is now closed.

There have been a lot of off-topic posts in this topic and as the OP the already has all the answer he sought, the topic is now closed.

You answered the question of how to "kill off" your multiple-entry re-entry permit yourself in your opening post of this topic (highlighting in bold is mine): More precisely, one could say that you will have to leave Thailand not later than 23 April and return visa-exempt not earlier than 24 April. The only question in your OP was: If you have got no definitive answer to this question in this topic, it is because no definitive answer exists. The degree of stress, if any, a traveller arriving visa-exempt on 24 April or later will be submitted to at any land or airport entry point cannot be predicted. The only definitive advice valid today that will most probably still be applicable at that future time is to avoid the land border entry at Aranyaprathet on the border with Cambodia.

Ah, yes,🤪the emoji known as Zany Face, used if something is silly but funny.

Now that you are on your immigration office's list of VIPs you can expect to receive the privilege of paying a "special service charge" every year. As for the "sawadee clap", you did not hear that correctly. Nobody put a curse on you to get the clap (slang for gonorrhoea), but that's something for the Thai Language forum.

I see. You aspire to become a so-called visa expert. To help you along, with reference to your topic title let me ask you the difference between a re-entry permit and a re-entry visa.

ME?

TL for Thailand, that's new and weird. It always puzzles me when a member who generally writes coherently uses an acronym of his own invention that renders his post incomprehensible.

Not that it matters as long as he flies out of Thailand, but I am curious: what is TL? Airport codes have three letters. https://www.acronymfinder.com/TL.html

You have to wait until the new extension is approved and stamped in your passport. For some types of extension, ie reason for the application, the approval is given at the time when you apply, for others the application is under consideration and approved at a later date.

Perhaps your wife clicked the wrong box. There is the choice between registering one's private dwelling or registering a business like a hotel or guest house.
