Can I convert my Thai education visa to a DTV visa or do I need to cancel it first?

@Jeiz **************

Glad you have the DTV visa 🤗 Congratulations 👏👏👏

@James *******

in asking for a certificate to cancel my ED visa from the school, they asked for date of departure, they said it is required. As I understand I don't have to leave to get it cancelled, just cancel at immigration. Is this right? Thanks.

@Jeiz **************

you cancel it at Thai immigration office that ISSUED you the STAMP in your passport. And you must leave Thailand on the date you ended study. Most schools give you a letter which states you ended study a week or two past the actual date School ended to give you time to leave Thailand.

You will need to get another stamp on Entry into Thailand

As Visa Exempt Entry or with another Thai visa you obtain outside of Thailand.

@James *******

i already got a stamp in with the DTV. Can you clarify if exiting is still needed? So far nothing in this forum talks about this, just a certification to cancel.

@Jeiz **************

then you will need to get the letter from your School stating that you have ended study to the Thai Immigration office which ISSUED you the Ed Visa stamp to cancel it.
