Can I live in Khon Kaen while training at a Muay Thai gym in Bangkok with Software Power?

If I apply for a Muay Thai gym in Bangkok with Software Power, will it be okay if I live in Khon Kaen? There aren't any certified Muay Thai gyms in the area I want to live. What should tm90 do in this case?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is inquiring about the possibility of living in Khon Kaen while training at a Muay Thai gym in Bangkok with Software Power, as there are no certified gyms in their area. Comments provide reassurance that it’s feasible, mentioning that once the user rents a house in Khon Kaen, the landlord will handle the TM30 filing, allowing them to do their 90-day report locally.

When you go to Khon Kaen and rent a house, the landlord will file the TM30. After that, you can do your 90-day report in Khon Kaen.

Would it be okay if a Muay Thai gym in Bangkok received DTV approval? Khon Kaen and Bangkok are quite far apart.Thank you for your reply.

Anonymous participant essentially you would have defrauded the Thai Foreign Ministry that has granted you a DTV Visa for Muay Thai training in Bangkok, but you don't live in Bangkok and have no intention of attending the Muay Thai training school course.

If that doesn't work out, I plan to stay near a certified Muay Thai gym and train there.
