Full time language courses are covered via the Education visa. There is a DTV approved Thai culture course which includes some Thai language study.

There is nothing to stop you from getting a DTV through Muay Thai or cooking classes, then studying the language. I recommend using an agent.

How can I apply for a long-term visa to study Thai language if the DTV doesn't list it as an option?
