Do you guys' know any Thai Cooking courses that my girlfriend could register for so she can get her DTV? Something that isn't too pricey.
Answer summary
Several users recommend Thai cooking courses suitable for DTV registration, emphasizing the importance of selecting a school approved by the Ministry of Education. Suggested schools include 'Taste of Thai', 'House of Taste Thai Cooking', 'Discover Thai Nature', and 'Bangkok Thai Cooking Academy', among others. Prices typically range from 25,000 to 50,000 baht for a six-month course. It's advised to avoid cheap online courses and ensure schools provide necessary documentation for the immigration process.

Yes many use Thai cooking courses for soft power DTV and it works well for girlfriends.

Look for cooking schools that are approved for DTV and registered with Ministry of Education. Good ones are in Bangkok Chiang Mai and Phuket. Course should be at least six months and include certificate and letter for immigration. Price usually from twenty five thousand to fifty thousand baht for full course. Avoid very cheap online only courses because embassy may reject.

Ask school to give you enrollment letter plus course schedule plus receipt and ministry registration paper. These four docs are what embassy wants for soft power. Some schools also help with translation and visa support letter.

For list of affordable DTV cooking schools that passed in twenty twenty six you can read Unlock Thailand by Isla Rey on Amazon. It has contacts and price comparison and how to check if school is legit for DTV.
