Re Entry Permit

[BillStrangeOgre]

I'm living at Phra Ram 9. Where is the nearest immigration office (or other) where i can get a re entry permit.

There used to be a 'one stop shop' for certain issues near Mo Chit. Do they supply them?

Cheers

Re-entry permits are only issued at Cheang Wattana Monday to Friday normal office hours; closed for lunch between 12 and 13.00.

The old Immigration Office at Suan Phlu will issue re-entry permits on Saturday morning only, between 8.30 and 12.00.

Thanks. Do you know how long a re entry is valid for?

"Do you know how long a re entry is valid for?"

It's good for as long as your current permission to stay date.

If you buy a re-entry stamp when you only have a week left on your visa/extension to stay, it will only be good for a week.

A re-entry stamp does not buy you more time. It just preserves whatever permission to stay date you currently have.

Single re-entry THB 1,000

Multiple re-entries THB 3,800

Validity of a re-entry permit runs together with the validity of your current visa and therefore the re-entry visa becomes invalid when your actual visa expires.

Thanks for all the info.

Post 6 means your permitted to stay rather than visa expiration. Visas and extensions of stay and permissions to stay are not the same thing and the date on a visa is only an enter before this date time and has nothing to do with how long you can remain in Thailand.

Are you talking only about Bangkok offices, or do you mean that no re-entry permits are available from regional Immigration offices, such as Korat?

The OP was asking about near Rama 9 Road and that is in Bangkok.
