What visa options are available for long-term stays in Thailand without attending school?
Hi , I'm from Canada, I work on a cargo vessel 5 for 6 months straight in the north of canada, and the other 6 or 7 months months off, I'm living in Thailand since last year. Last year I took a ED Visa( 2 days of school a week) and stayed in Thailand nearly 6 months without exiting the country woth that visa. What other visa can I apply for if I don't want to go to school and i want to stay 6 or 7 months without exiting the country? Thanks for your answers 🙏
Answer summary
The user, a Canadian living in Thailand, seeks alternative visa options to the ED visa they previously held, which required school attendance. They desire to stay for 6-7 months without exiting the country. Suggestions from the community include considering the Non-O retirement visa (if eligible), the Thai Elite Privilege visa for a more relaxed option, or exploring the METV and regular tourist visas with extensions and border runs to maximize time in Thailand. The conversation indicates limited options without attending school.
