How long does visa cancellation take?
Our final ED visa extensionł runs out 5th of May. We're leaving the country on the 30th and our school just told us we need to cancel the ED visa before leaving.
So now we're worried about time, we only have three working days. Should we expect a similarly long wait like when extending an education visa or is it like getting a re-entry permit and quite quick? I trust we can get it done in a day?
TLDR : Answer Summary
The process of canceling an Education (ED) visa extension in Thailand can typically be completed quickly, often in under 10 minutes, especially if you have the necessary letter from your school. However, it is crucial to complete this cancellation to avoid potential issues with immigration in the future, especially when applying for new visas. Failure to cancel an extension could result in fines or problems when seeking a new visa, even if you leave the country and return on another visa. It's recommended to handle the cancellation as soon as possible to mitigate any risks.
