Re-Entry Permit

How to Apply for a Re-Entry Permit

The requirement for foreign nationals holding a Non-O long-stay visa who wish to temporarily leave Thailand and return without invalidating their visa. Thai visas are generally single-entry, meaning if you leave the country without a re-entry permit, your visa becomes void immediately. This permit helps you maintain your visa status while traveling.

Required Documents Application:

1. Foreigner’s passport with current immigration entry stamp
2. Extension of stay stamp (if applicable)
3. Departure Card TM.6 (if available)
4. Completed TM.8 form
5. One recent 4×6 cm photo (white background, facing forward)

Important Notes:

• An immigration officer will stamp in your passport.
• The official term in Thai is “Permission to Re-enter the Kingdom.”
• The TM.8 form can be downloaded from www.immigration.go.th.

Where to Apply:

At the Immigration Office in the area where the foreigner is residing.
