What is the process to obtain a long-term DTV visa in Thailand for training in Muay Thai?

Hello everyone🙏

Hoping for some advice or help - I’m looking at getting the DTV to stay in Thailand long term without any bs boarder runs etc - would like to do it legit

I’m a bit unsure on the best/correct process (for myself) and like I said would like to get it/apply for it the correct way

I was thinking via Muay Thai as would like to learn the sport - but ultimately it doesn’t matter if via that method or not (will still train regardless)

Just wondering would be willing to talk me through the process/help me deciding which method will be best for me?

Let me know, any help is appreciated 🙏

Still got to make border runs every 180 but they feel like a lot less BS when you got a visa.

Are you looking for guaranteed extensions and no requirement to exit after 360 days provided by an agent?

What do you call long stay, this visa only gives you 180 days of stay, 1 time Extension of stay for 180 days and than you must leave.

If you intend to work remotely from Thailand then you need to use the workation option. You can still do Muay Thai in your spare time
