Hi, I have a education visa. Do I need to do anything before I leave?

Answer summary

If you are planning to leave Thailand while on an education visa, it's important to know the necessary steps to ensure a smooth return. You should obtain a re-entry stamp from any immigration office or international airport in Thailand, which will cost 1,000 THB. This stamp will allow you to re-enter the country under the same education visa. Alternatively, if you leave by air and do not plan to return while your visa is still active, it may automatically cancel, meaning no action is needed before your departure.

If you leave by air, you don't need to do anything. If you don't plan to return while your ED Visa is still active, it will automatically be cancelled. I went to another country by air and return after 2 days, and didnt have any issue

Leaving without re-entry permit/stamp will automatically cancel your current visa status.

Get a letter from your school with the date of your last day of study and take it to Immigration and they will cancel your Extension of Stay and give you a new stamp up to the date in the letter.
