femi fan Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Can it be done? I tried searching on relevant forums, but no answers. Went to immigration today, packed! I realise it's just after songkran, but it made me wonder if they offered reentry visas at the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkles Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Yes they do, or should I say they did a year ago.No fuss took 10 minutes.Having said that best you check at the airport, not the sort of thing you want to get wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting if they do. I can't recall seeing a re-entry visa desk going through International departures, but it's always possible I may have missed it, as I wouldn't be looking for it. Whereabouts is it actually located? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briley Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 The desk used to be at the top of the stairs, go through the check and it was on the left hand side. You can wander there and take a look to see if it is still up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilrob Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I saw the desk there most recently last month. I've never used it, because I always get a multiple reentry permit so I don't need one each trip, but the desk was certainly there and open, on your left just before you go through immigration.

Sojourner Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I passed it last week and it was open for business. Second floor, past the check point, on the left before the Immigration counters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cm das Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I got a re-entry permit at the airport desk about a year ago. The only catch was, for an airport-issued re-entry permit to be valid you had to be traveling on the day the stamp was placed in your passport. The guy who gave me the stamp wasn't aware of that apparently, because when I went to leave the next day I was told the re-entry permit I had was no good anymore & had to make a quick dash to the main immigration office about an hour before boarding.

JimGant Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 because when I went to leave the next day I was told the re-entry permit I had was no good anymore & had to make a quick dash to the main immigration office about an hour before boarding. Curious. A re-entry permit is valid until the expiration date of your extension of stay... Unless they stamped "used" over the stamp, how could the stamp be "no good?" Did they stamp "used" as you passed thru Immigration to board? Or what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? Are you sure? I know that BKK do but thats new about CNX ! Well seeing as the guy stamped the re entry in my pasport I am quite sure!!!! For peace of mind many may prefer to do it at the Imm Office days prior as you know things change here wihout rhyme or reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoloFlyer Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I asked this when i did my 90 day reporting a coupla weeks ago - the guy said reentry cannot be done at airport anymore. So I joined another que and did it there and then. He said if you arrive at airport without reentry stamp, they either send you to immigration, or you void your visa. Was thinking of mentioning it on TV at the time, but figured someone else would have already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
femi fan Posted April 20, 2011 Author Share Posted April 20, 2011 I thought i'd seen a desk recently! It does make sense there should be one, but i know that's not a reason for it to actually be there. I did manage to go into imm today and get the reentry done in about ten minutes, so well happy with that result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippydedodah Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 anyone gotten a re-entry permit at the airport in CM when leaving on an international flight, lately? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Awk Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 anyone gotten a re-entry permit at the airport in CM when leaving on an international flight, lately? When I was leaving in the evening three months ago, I noticed there was a desk with a re-entry sign on it. Thought I'd go check it out, but it remained busy for as long as I was waiting in the departure queue, perhaps serving out a re-entry permit.

moe666 Posted September 12, 2011 Share Posted September 12, 2011 Get it when you do your extension, already at immigration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippydedodah Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Get it when you do your extension, already at immigration thanks for the last 2 replies. Yes, i plan to go to get it at immigration today, but was just wondering as i have friends who travel in and out quite a bit and they had never heard of such a desk, or ever noticed it at the airport.

zippydedodah Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 went to immigration this morning. Arrived at 10:30, my number was called 10 minutes later for re-entry permit. They took my papers/money and then waited 1/2 hour for processing. Asked about re-entry permit desk at CM airport and was told by the officer that the service at the airport had been terminated.

Chiang Mai immigration likes issuing lots of re-entry's and COR's.....so you get them done quickly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB1955 Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 I did one today as well took about an hour and a half . The place was packed so my guess on a normal day it would not be a long of a wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenside Posted September 13, 2011 Share Posted September 13, 2011 Shame if the desk at the airport has gone. I used it in April and it was quick, efficient and a life saver since I'd forgotten to get a re-entry permit and would have lost my retirement extension. Suspect that they never publicised it so it didn't get used - it's not as if you'd turn up on the off chance, is it? Usual short term thinking.

dru2 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Yep, I did it on December 28th for a flight to Luang Prabang. The desk is on the left as soon as you have passed the first xray baggage check. They were very helpful and fast. I hate doing it, though, as I'm always afraid it will be closed.... I asked, and they assured me that if the airport was open for international flights, then the desk would be open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MartinBKK Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Thanks for posting. If I fly outside of Thailand before my 90 reporting date does this mean I don't need to report?

justcruisin Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Went to the airport today, hoping to get a re-entry for a land crossing, alas no luck they are only issued on showing a boarding pass. Oh well down to the hell hole tomorrow, riding to Laos on Friday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
