Hi everyone! I'm new on this group. I come to you guys hoping for some advice. I'm a martial artist and I want to go to Thailand to practice Muay Thai for two months. I'm a U.S. citizen with a passport but no knowledge about the types of Visa or how to star the process. Can anyone help me or point me on the right direction? I appreciate any and all the help I can get.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A new expat is seeking advice on the type of visa needed for a two-month stay in Thailand to practice Muay Thai. Community members suggest options such as entering on a visa exemption for 30 days and extending for an additional 30 days, or applying for a single entry tourist visa for 60 days which can also be extended for another 30 days. Some gyms may also offer a student visa for those wishing to stay longer.

If you want to avoid 1 day at immigration for the 30 day extentsion, apply for the Single Entry Tourist Visa and get 60 days on entry. And in case of, possible to extend once with another 30 days.

The other option would be to apply for a single entry tourist visa, this will give you a 60 entry that can be extended by a further 30 days

If you really just want 2 months, come on a visa exempt, 30 days and then extend in Thailand for another 30 days.
