Silly question. Do Thai nationals get exit/entry stamps in their passports at Thai immigration?

 

TIA

Yes They DO.....

But not if they use the egates.

Seems there are two threads running, my answer to the other 38 minutes ago: If they go via a manned immigration desk, then yes they do.

You got me to thinking. Just verified the wife passport and yes she has an entry stamp. This was done at the VIP desk in Suvarnabhumi July 26.

They do also get a stamp at egates .

I saw them at Nong Khai yesterday .

They put their PP on a scanner , the doors open and close behind them

They put their fingerprint on another scanner and the door opens

And theres an IO there to put a stamp in the PP

I don't think that is normal practice, there are several reports of PR holders having to get proof of entry / exit after the event.

It also defeats the purpose of egates.

At an airport they do not do a stamp. Apparently different at a border crossing. Perhaps they do it to go along with the Lao departure stamp.

It does make it a lot quicker , the IO just sits there and stamps the PP without studying them

It sure would do, I was not aware that they have the egates at land borders, still a bit strange why they need to stamp them, unless it is to do with the immigration procedures for the bordering country, wonder, do they stamp them out and in, or just out (or in)?
