Hi there. Quick question.
My plan is to get SETV visa here in UK, head to portugal for a couple of months then over to Thailand (Ipretty sure I have up to 3 months to activate the SETV, correct me if I'm wrong). Potentially I'll extend/do a hop and extend again for 6 months.
Then my plan is to get an Education Visa in Chiang Mai.
In your opinion is it better to get the Education Visa in Thailand - visting some instutions first (I know I have to head out of country to get this going once school apporved/I have paid) OR should I fly back to UK after Portugal and set up Education Visa her ein UK first?
According to my research the first option seems best - apply for Education Visa whilst in Thailand?
Thanks!
