ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation discusses whether a DTV (Thai long-term visa) can be obtained through a Thai language course. It is clarified that language courses typically qualify for an Education visa (ED visa) instead. Users emphasize that the DTV visa is more suited for activities related to Thai culture under 'soft power', such as Muay Thai training, medical treatment, or cooking classes. Specific language schools in Phuket that can issue letters for DTV applications are not identified, but the community advises that pursuing an ED visa is the appropriate route for learning Thai language.
