What was the reason they denied you? Curious about this as my education visa ends soon and I would like to continue studying.

Tyler Byers no right now back alley private schools schools whether it's language or muay Thai does not matter. Unless it's a proper university program is what the government seems to approve only.

Allan Flanagan I would hope so. I’m on my first ED visa for language (I had a Muay Thai visa several years ago when I came to Thailand for the first time). I feel like I’m barely scratching the surface with my language skills so hopefully they’ll give out more than one visa. I’m also curious if it matters at all if you switch schools or stay with the same one assuming it’s a reputable school.

that’s good to know. I was actually thinking about taking a break from school and doing a Muay Thai visa, maybe I’ll have to re-evaluate that plan. Good luck with everything, keep us posted.

no my first Ed visa was self defense. Only now I'm applying for Thai language. Yes but if I get a void stamp in my passport that's not good. It's so tiring and costs money if I were to go back to cm, reapply and then go somewhere else.

I wonder if it’s only that consulate not issuing a second ED visa. Perhaps you could try a consulate in another country?

interesting. There is no way anyone could become fluent in Thai within a single ED visa period imo. Were you ever tested for your language ability at the consulate or at immigration?
