ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
The users discuss the requirements for applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand when studying Thai as a second language. It is clarified that the DTV cannot be issued solely for language studies; rather, it can be applied for through cultural courses. If one wishes to study Thai, it is suggested to apply for an extension of stay based on a Thai language studies program and expect to leave Thailand every 12 months after the first year. Having a work portfolio may not be necessary, but genuine study is required for successful extensions.
