How does the Muay Thai visa work? 

Do you have to do a few classes to verify you can get it? Or to qualify?

And how long does it last? The visa

TLDR : Answer Summary

There isn't a specific 'Muay Thai visa'; instead, individuals interested in studying Muay Thai can apply for an Education Visa (Non-Immigrant ED Visa) through accredited gyms. The visa typically lasts for 8 months to a year, but holders can only leave Thailand for a limited number of days during this period. Gyms like Tiger Muay Thai in Phuket provide information and sponsorship for this type of visa.

As stated above, you’re looking for the non immigrant ED visa, which some accredited muay thai gyms can sponsor. Tiger MT in Phuket has some useful information on their site.

Usually 8 months or a year for education visa. I was going to get one for learning that. I stopped the process as they only allow you to leave the country for 9 working days during your visa term. Not to good if you want to travel. Actually anyone with any feedback on the practise of that rule would be appreciated?

What? There isn't a "Muy Thai visa." If you want to study Muy Thai, some schools are eligible for Education Visas that allow you to study Muy Thai.
