Comments from other users provide varying insights on the situation, with some reassuring the user that the cancellation letter is beneficial, while others highlight potential complications with the application process due to prior visa statuses.

you actually had to cancel your ED-extension on Immigration with those paper documents of your university, before you left Thailand. So now the game is open, you will probably succeed - because the embassy in Cambodia can't see your multi entry ED stay permit - but Immigration will be seeing it on their central computer, and it is an unfinished process, so perhaps it's Immigration that will cause a problem

many people here confuse a "1-year stay permit" wrongly with "a visa", so I won't put much weight into what they claim to know 😅 Tod Daniels is right, this anonymous participant is on an "extended stay permit based on ED", and not on a "multi entry ED visa"

It matters not. Many here have reported getting DTV while on METV, O and ED. There is one report of one person having an issue today in Hanoi with METV. Your love of pedantry does not change facts :-)

the problem is, that embassies are ministry of foreign affairs, but immigration is ministry of interior. As they do not communicate much with each other, and everone making up their own rules, this happens. I am only saying that the rule ALWAYS was that you cannot apply for a new visa anywhere outside of Thailand, if you still had a valid stay permit or a still valid visa. You just cannot hold TWO different Thai visa at the same time. What embassies are doing when allowing applicants to get a DTV issued while they are still on a valid stay permit that was issued on Immigration, is a severe breach of rules! And it remains to be seen how Immigration will handle this logistic problem in the future - it is too early to say, as not many people that were affected, did a new entry on a DTV yet.

I know the they different ministries. I do not need a lesson in "Thainess" from you. I have probably been coming here longer than you, lived here longer than you, worked here and with Thais longer than you have at all levels and been on more types of visa than you have. Stop wasting both of our times.

You are the one trying to be an expert after 3 weeks in Thailand. Getting all upset and affronted because others have done things you reckon are not allowed. A crashing bore most decent chaps would avoid in social circles. Toddle off and mither someone else. You probably are not trying to be funny but you are hilarious. Must be cultural. School of Hard Kocks and the University of Life - usually means lack of experience of each.

𝗜'𝗺 𝗼𝗻 𝗺𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝗘𝗗 𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗮 <- so you're on a year-long, multi-entry Non-ED visa you got from a thai consulate OUTSIDE the country before you came here <- which is the type of visa where you bounce out and back every 90 days to get a NEW 90 day entry stamp?

I think you're confused and instead you are on a year-long "extension of stay" from the immigration office INSIDE thailand AND you have a multiple re-entry permit

Those are completely different things entirely 🙂

Your cancellation letter strengthens your case. You have been in Cambodia waiting for 10 business days? I would have thought you would have been informed by now of any rejection if you been there 10 days.
