TLDR : Answer Summary

The post discusses the timing for cancelling a student visa in Thailand before applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). The original poster is unsure whether to cancel their student visa now or wait until after their flight. Comments suggest that it's best to cancel the visa shortly before flying or after completing studies. Some users noted they managed to apply for a DTV while still holding a student visa without issues.
