ED visa for Muaythai (not looking at DTV with this question), one could reenroll each year for more training, yes? Any experience with this?

TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can re-enroll annually for Muay Thai training on an ED visa in Thailand, but typically, this is limited to a maximum of two years. Some commenters suggest looking into the DTV visa as a potentially better option for long-term stay, as it allows for multiple entries and has a longer duration, although it comes with a significant financial requirement.

In general you can only enroll two times for a year. Aka in total 2 years. But as

mentioned, ask the school. There is always an exception somewhere.

You'd be better asking the school you will use. They will be able to answer you

if it is a Muay Thai course, then compared to an ED Visa, considering the DTV Visa would be the better option for a number of reasons (5 Years, Multiple Entry, etc.), notwithstanding the 500k Baht Proof of Funds requirement for DTV. Also, Muay Thai is specifically listed as one of the eligible categories in the Interior Ministry Notice published in the Royal Gazette giving effect to the DTV Visa

Ask a gym like maybe Kyn Phoenix.

Yes can re-renew officially no end.

You can only get about 2 years maximum in Thailand using a traditional ED visa with a non-university course

@Tainui *******
you might be confused. All ED visas, except at real universities, must be extended every three months, which many confuse as "renewals". The ED visa does have time limits, even at a university, when you can no longer get it.

not confused, I'm well aware what system it's under. I've done it 2 times and have friends on there 4th and 5th year on Muay Thai ED visa.
