Re-entry Permit - Where Do I Obtain?

[ThaiFelix]

Firstly, sorry if this has been covered previously and I have missed it.

I have a non Imm B ext good to Sept 2010. I need to get a re-entry permit next month as I am leaving for a couple of weeks. Many of the posts say your 'local' office. Local to where you work, live, or had your visa extended? I live in Minburi (address for 90 reporting), I work in Rangsit and had my visa ext in Pathum Thani. At work they tell me I can go to any office but I have lost a lot of shoe leather trusting them. It would be more convenient for me to go to the new Imm office in Wattana whatever. But can I get one there?

Can anyone help me please.

You should be able to get it at Any office, but if you want to be safe you can go to the one what you report to.

Officially it has to be the office you applied for the extension.

I was at the Khon Kaen office today and there is a big sign on the wall saying this.

Always a good idea to get one when you get your visa..A sigle re-entry is only 1000 baht and saves car rubber/pocket money too! You never know when you may have to make a quick exit and if you are at the wrong end of the country then it can cost a lot to get back to where you got your visa extension or original visa...

I got to the office late when I got my extension at Ayutthaya and they said that I could go to the Kanchanaburi office to get the re-entry permit later. Straight from the horse's mouth but I don't trust the advice and will confirm with the Kan office if I choose this option...it's a nicer drive to Kan than to Ayutthaya

It is the office where you got your extension from.

It is the office where you got your extension from.

I was afraid you might say that...its just so goddam far from where I live and have to do it in my holidays so from home.

Thank you all very much for your help guys.
