Hi everyone, i would like to ask. I am a Singapore passport holder who came in to Bangkok as a tourist with 30 days stamp and then i applied for extension (paid 1900 baht) for another 30 days. My visa ends on 9 June. Qns, as i applied to study Thai in a school. I waited so long for them to process my visa while i am in Bkk. They told me that to leave Bkk before 9 June and come back on 12 June with a new 30 day tourist stamp and then meet them at immigration so they can change my visa from tourist to education. I am confused with the system. Will the airport immigration deny me entry? Seeing i had been in Bkk for like 60 days as tourist and then just gone for a few days and coming back again as a tourist?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks clarification on the immigration process after staying in Thailand for 60 days on a tourist visa. They are advised to leave and return for a new tourist stamp to facilitate a change to an education visa, with one comment confirming there should be no entry issues if this is the only time they've visited Thailand this year.
Hmm in my passport, i have stamps since last year august, i come to Bkk every month for 3-5 days. Only on april onwards, i decided to stay 30 days and extended another 30 days till 9 june. Would there be issues for me entering?
