ORIGINAL POSTER
I'm applying for non-immigrant ED visa seeking for multiple entry.

I just have some questions regarding with the form.

1. How many number of entries should I put or will it depends on my intent to request at embassy?

2. Is filling-in the form of the Guarantor needed? Because I don't have anyone else to be as Guarantor in Bangkok. All I am thinking would be the landlord I'll be staying in.

Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is applying for a non-immigrant ED visa in Thailand and seeks clarification on the number of entries to indicate on the application form and the need for a guarantor, as they lack one in Bangkok. Responses from the community suggest that multiple entries may not be typical for an ED visa since it requires attendance at classes, dissuading frequent travel. Users also mention that a landlord can serve as a guarantor, and information on filing applications via the eVisa system is provided.

Are you trying to fill out a paper application or evisa? If you're from a country that has switched to Evisa it's the only way to apply.

There should be a tool on there to see if your country uses evisa.

I've never heard of a multiple entry ED visa. You're required to be attending classes to qualify for an ED so leaving the country is frowned upon. Also an ED visa grants entry for 90 days so that's not much point for multiple entry. If taking informal lessons at a language school you'll need to do an extension every 90 days and apply for a re-entry permit when you get your extension.

If attending university classes you can get a 1 year extension, same thing with the re-entry permit. But once again leaving is frowned upon.

For guarantor, most people put the hotel they'll be staying at so if you already have a landlord lined up then that should be fine.

: I plan use ED visa coming, school said I can take leave back to my home country, and return. Is it once I leave Thailand, then cannot return even I have valid ED visa? Thank you.
