TLDR : Answer Summary

To obtain an educational visa (ED visa) in Thailand, find a school registered with the Ministry of Education that offers the subject you wish to study, such as Thai language, Muay Thai, or cooking. After enrolling and paying the tuition, the school will provide you with the necessary paperwork to apply for a 90-day ED visa at a Thai consulate in a neighboring country. Before the 90 days expire, you can extend your visa by taking additional paperwork from the school to the immigration office.

Okay, you get an education visa by finding a school registered with the Ministry of Education to teach their subject (meaning they can offer ED visa support).

You enroll, pay your tuition, get paperwork from the school to take to a thai consulate in a neighboring country to get a 90 day ED visa.

When that 90 days is running out you take paperwork from the school to the immigration office to get a 90 day extension.

Good Luck (y)

Lacey C. Clark It's a non imm visa, category ED, education. The subject you're studying is fairly irrelevant as long as it's recognized by the Immigration dept.
