Re-Entry Permits

Planning to leave Thailand temporarily but don’t want to lose your visa status? A re-entry permit is essential for maintaining your visa’s validity when you leave and return.

Note: Some visas are exempt from needing a permit, if you'd like to find out, please contact me.

Why You Need a Re-Entry Permit

Without a re-entry permit, most visas will automatically cancel when you leave Thailand, requiring a fresh application to re-enter. Single re-entry permits cost 1,000 THB, while multiple re-entry permits cost 3,800 THB.

They can be applied for at immigration offices OR at international airports - however I STRONGLY recommend you do it at an immigration office incase you are delayed at the airport.

How I Can Help:
  • Eligibility Check: Confirm your eligibility

  • Document Review: Ensure your paperwork is complete, including proof of funds, photos, and visa forms.

  • Quick Processing: Expedite your application to avoid disruptions to your travel plans.

Cost of Missing a Re-Entry Permit Before Travel:
  • Your visa will automatically cancel if you leave Thailand without a re-entry permit.

  • This means you’ll need to reapply for a new visa to re-enter, which can cost significantly more time and money than the 1,000 THB (single) or 3,800 THB (multiple) re-entry permit fee.

Common Challenges:
  • Forgetting to apply before leaving Thailand, leading to canceled visas.

  • Incorrect paperwork or submission delays.

  • Missed flights because of airport delays
