TLDR : Answer Summary

A user inquired about difficulties selecting the appropriate visa type on the online application for a Thai tourist visa (SETV) using a UK passport. They could only select a tourist visa for 'Recreation Learning' and not 'Tourism and Medical Purposes' due to the lack of supporting documents. Community responses provided suggestions for completing the application process.

Done mine online was a bloody nightmare, in the end I had to get a friend to do it took about 5 hours, so much easier by post

If you want a tourist visa, select tourism. If you want an education visa, select learning.
