I now hold 2 visas and a work permit. The visa I have been using is a business visa, the "owns 49% of the company" kind. The work permit is associated with that visa.

I now have a DTV and I intend to enter Thailand using the DTV.

I need to cancel the business visa and work permit. Is that something I can do myself? What is the procedure for that?

hi guys . I'm leaving Thailand on the 30th June but my school gave me the documents today to cancel my work permit and visa but on the documents it does say the 30th but I thought we only had 24 hours to leave the country after doing this, does this sound right ?

My wife and I are Americans both on 1-year ED Visas since February 2018 in Chiang Mai. Our final reporting date is Jan 15 2019 with visas both expiring Jan 31. We are visiting the USA Dec 4 returning to Chiang Mai Jan 4. This means we’ll be reporting just 11 days after our return and then leaving the country only 16 days later. Two questions:

1) Are we eligible to apply for a tourist visa (60-day or 6-month METV) at a Thai embassy in the US while still on an active/valid/soon-to-expire 1-year ED Visa? If so, can we return to Thailand (via Chiang Mai) on the tourist visa before the ED visa expires?

2) If we forgo the re-entry permit before we depart on Dec 4, can we instead return on a 30-day visa exempt stamp?

The 1-year ED visa is the only Thai Visa we have in our current passports. We’ve been reporting and extending on schedule throughout the Visa term.

Thank you kindly in advance for any advice offered.

Hi,

If you have an Ed visa but want to cancel it, or at least leave the country and apply for a different kind of visa, are you required to do that in immigration or do you automatically lose it when you leave the country?

If you are required to visit immigration, are you at the moment of cancellation on an overstay? Or is the original visa just canceled and you are still allowed in the country up until the date of your last stamp? Imagine you have been on your ED visa for 10 months - have two months left - but just found a job and someone is already getting your paperwork ready for you. I have already talked with someone about this and it seems not to be very clear. Thank you.
