What are the current challenges in renewing a self-defense ED visa in Thailand?
Has anyone been able to renew a self defense ED visa for more than one year successfully in the past month or two? when I was finishing up it was getting stricter and people were being told they had to get new passports or go to specific consulates only to renew. Seems like the new standard is one year per subject only unless you are studying thai. Getting another ED visa is my backup plan in case I cant sort the work permit in time
Summary so far
The post discusses the difficulties in renewing a self-defense Education (ED) visa for more than one year due to recent stricter regulations. The author shares experiences of others being required to obtain new passports or visit certain consulates for renewal, suggesting that the current norm is to limit renewals to one year per subject unless studying Thai. The author is considering obtaining another ED visa as a backup plan if they cannot sort out their work permit in time.
