Miami Bob Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Here is a simple question. I already have a retirement visa from the USA. I need to leave Thailand and come back in a few days. Do I need a reentry permit? If so, how much does it cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 If you have an O-A visa that says "Multi" entry and the visa date has not expired you do not need a re-entry permit. But if it says "Single or 1" entry or the visa expiration date will have passed before your return you must have a re-entry permit. A re-entry permit costs 1,000 baht for a single trip.

briley Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Hold on, the OP says he has a retirement visa - I know 'from the US' but doesn't that mean he does need an exit/re-entry permit? If you do it is 1000 baht for a single entry and just under 4,000 for a multiple annual entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiflyer1 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 (edited) Hold on, the OP says he has a retirement visa - I know 'from the US' but doesn't that mean he does need an exit/re-entry permit?If you do it is 1000 baht for a single entry and just under 4,000 for a multiple annual entry. Not if its an O-A Multiple entry..........thats the beauty of them everytime you leave and re-enter up until the 1 year validity expiry date of the visa you recieve a fresh 1 years stay stamp. If however the OP has a standard single entry "O" and has extended said visa by 1 year within Thailand then yes he will need a re-entry permit.....as said, fee 1000 baht.....obtainable beforehand or from the office in Terminal 1 departures after check in and time permitting Edited April 27, 2006 by thaiflyer1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 The normal retirement visa (actually a non immigrant O-A) issued in the USA is multi entry and a re-entry permit is not required during the one year validity of that visa. But it is was not issued as a multi entry then the re-entry permit will be required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
