What are my options for staying in Thailand after my ED visa if I cannot continue studying?

My Volunteer visa is good 15 months, so definitely no 1 year rule. Its a shady sort of thing so not entirely recommended. I have been here a few years mostly on tourist visas. I think there are options for you. Ready to be a teacher?

Just to say my story if it can help. I'm studying in a private school. Really study means at least 8 hours a week, sometimes more. My school is one of the most famous and one of the most expensive (language Express at Mo Chit) My study should normally end up in the end of December (paid 55k for 14 months). I normally had to go out of country in June to extend my visa but can't... Since then no matter how much I insisted to the school or to the immigration I'm considered as a guy who entered the country with a tourist visa or just a stamp... I even brought a letter from my embassy asking the immigration to let me stay in the country to finish my studies. No effect or no more than any other embassy letter from people who are in a tourist visa. Therefore the school was closed during an extended time so I have a bunch of hours left that I can't even use and because i stopped study too. All the schedule change because of covid. and it's now quite difficult to go to the class for me. Therefore the school what not helpful, just extended me to March for the time the school was closed but no visa so... So my advice for you is just... Good luck... And for those who think to get an ED visa in these unsure times I would say don't expect much.... And if you can pay in several times just in case something happen. Too much people use these visa just to be in Thailand ad never go to school....i guess everybody put you in this same basket. No matter if you study or not.

Any jobs going please?

I was on an ed visa. My school offered another year to me when it was coming to en end. I decided to go with a retirement visa instead.

Sounds like your school is the weak link.

First, are you actually going to registered language school and learning Thai, or did you use some agent to get the ED extension, and are not actually going to school?

Your school seems to be a bit ignorant or messed something up. AFAIK you get 3 months on arrival with edu visa then 3 extensions every 3 months resulting in 4 stamps and total 1 year of studying visa. AFAIK even after the year passes some schools can enroll you for next year without you having to leave the country (since few months ago)

The visa stuff always changes here and legality is always in various forms of gray because everyone's lost.

where are u ?BKK? I am the ED visa too and had successfully extended it more 90days already in CM.

If you want to stay here longer and continue studying, it would probably be better to enroll in a masters degree at a university. Volunteer visas are for volunteers, which is something completely different.

Actually Thai language​ visa is able to extend 3 more times in every 3 months.

Im quite not sure that I understand​ your situation​ correctly. But feel that something​ wrong with you.

However, right now you are able to extend 60 days Covid visa with no required​ Embassy​ letter. Let do that first to avoid overstay then find another option later.
