soitgoes769 Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 I know this has been discussed before, but the last post I can find on it was from about 8 months ago (which is a lifetime in Thai time). I have a Non-B visa and need a re-entry permit. Can I get it at BKK Suvarnabhumi? My flight is at 6am over Songkran Holiday so I would be looking to get it at around 4am. Is this still possible? Are they open on Thai Holidays too? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted March 25, 2014 Share Posted March 25, 2014 The re-entry permit desk is open 24/7. They will be open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 (edited) Same question. I have an Edvisa. Where is it at Suwannaphum, how much time does it take? What is the cost and is there an online form to download? Thanks Edited March 30, 2014 by Green Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 If you have a multiple entry non-ed visa you don't need a re-entry permit. If you have an extension of stay (it is not a visa) from immigration based upon attending school you do need one. The re-entry permit desk is located within the departure immigration area. You can ask as soon as your enter there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurnell Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 I just did my re-entry permit at Suvarnabhumi and it costs 1,200 baht for a single and takes about 20 minutes. No photo needed, they do it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siamtwin Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 (edited) Isn't the cost at BKK immigration for single reentry less than that? If so, why the difference?

theoldgit Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 Isn't the cost at BKK immigration for single reentry less than that? If so, why the difference? A single re-entry permit at a regular Immigration office is 1,000 Baht, you're paying a premium at the airport for the photo and the convenience.

Crossy Posted March 30, 2014 Share Posted March 30, 2014 You can't miss the desk, as you come down the escalator from security there's a sign pointing to the right that says "Re-entry Visa" (yes, I know). Never seen more than a couple of passengers at said desk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantSmith Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 And be polite! The last couple of times I've seen farang of various origin being right <deleted> to the staff. The staff will play your little game and send you straight into the Immigration line to have you stamped out, thus, no re-entry permit and you're none the wiser thinking it was all relatively painless Otherwise hand over your 1,200 baht and relax. You'll be back in the line within no time. Your info is also kept on file should you need to get another one, they'll re-do the photo though.

laban Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Be warned - the 24 hour desk is through normal immigration lane. They DO NOT have one if going through premium lane....in case anyone flying biz class. Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
