Hi everyone

Right now I am in marrige visa extension. I am teaching in university and I have work permit. I am just wondering if can I study Phd and also working with workpermit? Is it possible to do both in marrige visa? Or is there any restriction? It will be great help if you guys let me know. Thank you.

Answer summary

You can work and study simultaneously while on a marriage visa extension in Thailand, as there are no restrictions against doing both. Additionally, studying is permitted if you hold a visa based on employment. However, bear in mind that if you switch to a student visa (Non-ED), you cannot work.

No problem at all to work and study when you are on an extension based on marriage to a Thai national.

You also can study when you are on visa/extension based on employment.

What you can NOT do is that you work when you are on visa/extension based on studying (Non-ED).
