TLDR : Answer Summary
The user wants to know if they can return to Thailand for 60 days in February after staying on an education visa for 10 months and leaving for Vietnam in November. Comments suggest there may be extra scrutiny from immigration officials due to the previous education visa status, and it is recommended to have all required documentation ready.

No guarantees for sure, you could be pulled aside for further questioning. You will need an ongoing flight confirmed imo

GL but no one on here can give you the answer.

ArticulatePoodle5170 Most often they will send you back to where you departed from. Sometimes they will make you go back to your passport country, and even more rarely they will let you go wherever you want.

my ticket is for DMK, I think it more risky.

And if I decline. I can't go back to Vietnam because I need visa. So they will send me home. Better exit and return to Vietnam. It sad Thailand to risky those days

I went to immigration to cancel the Ed Visa before it expired, and I left Thailand in the next day

Make sure you have the 3 proofs, as they give extra scrutiny to many people who have previously had an ED visa.
