Hi I'm thinking of applying for dtv soft power visa. However. I cannot 6 consecutive monthly in Thailand

For professional and personal reasons, I'll have to leave thailand for one month. Would it be a problem if I cannot participate for one month in the classes ? (Thinking of taking the thai culture dtv)

Answer summary

The DTV Soft Power Visa allows for flexibility in attendance; missing one month of classes is not a problem as Thai immigration does not monitor attendance for these courses.
