Protect Your Long-Term Visa
If you hold a one-year extension of stay (such as a retirement, marriage, or business visa) and plan to travel outside of Thailand, obtaining a re-entry permit beforehand is absolutely essential. Failure to do so will result in your one-year extension being invalidated upon exiting the country, meaning you would have to start the entire visa process from the beginning.
Types of Re-Entry Permits
Immigration provides two options to suit your travel needs:
- Single Re-Entry Permit: As the name implies, this permit is valid for one exit and re-entry into Thailand. It is a cost-effective solution for those with a single trip planned.
- Multiple Re-Entry Permit: This permit allows for unlimited travel in and out of the country for the entire duration of your visa's validity. It is the ideal choice for frequent travelers.
It is crucial to remember that a re-entry permit's validity is tied to your visa's expiration date. You must re-enter Thailand before your underlying visa extension expires.
