What should I know about getting a 6-month education visa to study Thai in Thailand?
Hey everyone, thinking of getting a 6 month education visa.
I want to study Thai. Any schools to recommend?
What else can I study? Any schools to recommend for less than 27,000 baht?
Must I be in Thailand while waiting for the visa? Or can I exit and arrive on a tourist visa?
Thanks for your help :)

yes I’m in Thailand now. 5k baht? If I stayed outside Thailand, how long would it take to get this?Graham ******
@Rebecca *****
For a METV you need to be in your country of residence to apply. The RTE London typically issues one in approximately 5 days if you get the online application and documentation right.Rebecca ******

Two border bounces can get you almost 90 months (60 days plus 30 day extension 3 times)Rebecca ******
OP@Graham *****
thank you. It says the longest you can stay is 60 days. That means you need to do a visa run 3 times to stay 6 months?Graham ******
