ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi, after some advice. We have moved to Chiang Rai on a tourist visa which runs out at the end of Jan. My husband is changing over to education visa (school starts Dec 1st) and myself and kids will follow that. Can we do the ed visa at CR immigration? Do we need to leave the country? Can my husband just go in or myself and kids need to be there? Thanks!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user is seeking advice on applying for an education visa in Chiang Rai after arriving on a tourist visa. Comments indicate that visa applications must be done in person, and if the school is a private institution, leaving the country may be necessary.
