What should I do to cancel my expired ED-Visa in Thailand and will I face any fines?
Good afternoon! I have a question referring to ed-visa cancelation.
My Ed-Visa expired on 17th Jan 2022, and I came back to my home country at that time for a holiday. In March 2022, I obtained a non-B Visa in my home country to work for a company in Thailand, which is valid for 90 days. However, I haven't canceled my Ed-Visa and now I am not able to extend the non-B visa for up to 1 year until the Ed-Visa is canceled.
May I ask in this case, should I have any problem at the immigration office when I ask for a Visa cancellation or should I have to pay a fine?
Thank you for your advice in advance.

you should have cancelled your ED extension BEFORE you left the country with documentation from your school by going to the immigration office
You will need the paper from the school stating when you stopped studying (probably dated the day you stamped OUT of thailand 😛 )
They will charge you a fine of 500 baht a day up to a maximum of 20K baht because you didn't do it
You have to go to the immigration office that issued that extension to cancel it, no other office can do it

OPThank you, Tod. May I ask besides paying the fine, will the officer refuse to stamp a cancellation stamp in my passport because I came back to Thailand on a non-B Visa?

OPI see. I appreciate your help, Tod. Have a nice evening!

nope, shouldn't have a problem, believe me you're far from the first person to not cancel an extension before they left and then come back in and can't get a new extension until they doActivity
