Hi all! Im currently on my first ed visa for Thai language, month 4. I need to leave Thailand for 8 days. The school gave me documentation and proof of attendance, i will also get a reentry permit. I will leave and return through Bkk airport. I’ve heard stories of people being denied entrance with Ed visas even though they’re going to legitimate schools and have the proper documentation. Is this something I should be worried about? Has anyone had issues recently or was it ok? At this point I don’t know if it’s a risk or just some people spreading fear.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks advice about re-entering Thailand after leaving for 8 days while on an ED visa for language studies. They have documentation from their school and will obtain a re-entry permit. However, they are concerned about possible issues upon return, given reports of others facing entry denial with valid documentation. Comments suggest that having a 90-day extension after 4 months in school ensures smoother re-entry, but caution is advised if the extension is not obtained.

As long as you have your first 90 day extension, after 4 months in school, you won't have any problems, but, if you don't have that required 90 day extension of your ED visa you could be looking at trouble.
