How can I cancel my Education (ED) visa before my flight?

ED Visa Cancellation Thai Visa Regulations Immigration Procedures Thailand Visa Extensions Departure from Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

How can I cancel my ED visa? I am aware that leaving the country without doing anything doesn't mean that my ED is cancelled.

I had my last extension on my current ED and due date it's 27 january 2023. Decided to leave earlier to get out of Thailand. 

I booked a morning flight around 650am somewhere in mid January. Messaged my language school and there was no reply... (Perhaps they missed it)

Now I was told that I have to leave the same day when my ED is cancelled, but my flight is in morning, couldn't go to immigration at chaengwatanna to cancel.

Can I cancel my ED at the airport directly? What documents do I need to prepare?

TIA

TLDR : Answer Summary

To cancel your ED visa, you need a letter from your language school indicating the date of your last study day. You should visit the immigration office about a week before the stated date to cancel your current extension. If timing does not allow you to visit before your flight, cancelling directly at the airport is not standard practice. It's essential to ensure all documents are in order and to consider potential delays in processing.

What Brandon said. Just letter from school and you be stamped to the date they put on the letter.

In Bangkok you could not make an appointment for that counter at immigration, had to take a queue. Vary depending on what office you go to.

Your school needs to write you a letter saying the date your last day of study is.

Then about a week before that date you go to immigration with the letter and they will cancel your extension and stamp you in until the date on your letter.

That gives you time to prepare and leave as scheduled while also taking care of cancelling.
