Hello all,

Is it possible to extend / convert a 12 month student visa to a 3 month student upon expiry of the first visa please ?

Asking for my son who is about to complete high school and needs just 1 more month on his Visa.

Hi!

Do I still need to buy Re Entry at the immigration or I am exempted as I am confused.

As on the top it says re entry permit must be made before leaving thailand and then it say exempted.

Non o ed visa university student going out of thailand in between semester holidays

UPDATE 1:

Didn’t need to apply for re-entry permit as informed by the immigration/reentry desk at Suvarnabhumi airport.

Update 2:

Was allowed through immigration with no questions asked.

Is it normal procedure for Thai immigration to keep a persons passport overnight or for several days when one applies for a student visa ? I have always been instructed to never part with my passport while traveling . This just doesn’t feel correct to me .

Hi guys, I'll be flying to Thailand in 2 weeks. I want to start as a tourist with a visa exemption but start learning Thai in Chiang Mai via an ED visa. Do I need to leave the country to get the visa or can I stay in Thailand? Thanks in advance!

I’m a US citizen currently living in Spain on a student visa. I want to go straight from Spain to Thailand once my visa is up. I’d love to apply for my DTV online but I’m worried that might be complicated since I’m not in my country of origin. There is a Thai consulate in Madrid but it’s kind of far from me.

Has anyone had experience of applying for the DTV online in a country they are temporarily living in? Is it possible or spoils I just go to the Madrid consulate? I’d love to know your thoughts ✨❤️

Hello, everyone!

I’m currently in Thailand on a student visa, which expires on April 13. Can I fly to Da Nang, stay in my family’s apartment, and apply for the DTV (Soft Power Muay Thai) online through the Thai embassy in Hanoi? Or do I need a hotel booking in Hanoi?

Hi! Has anyone enrolled their follower kids in an international school? I’ve been told that my kids need a student visa, even though they are my followers on the DTV visa.

Hi guys…just want to confirm, now all visas be it tourist/business/study/non-o etc, are all e-visa??

We dont have to go to the Embassies to bring passport or any documents or pick up the visa when approve???? 😳

Question: After arriving on an initial 3 month non-immigrant education visa, can you leave and re-enter with a re-entry permit?

Or will it get canceled?

I know this is ok after it has been extended to one year, but is it ok in the initial 3 month period?

This is for 4 year university. Kenyan passport.

Hello everyone, and thank you in advance for your help. I’m currently on a student visa and planning to apply for a DTV visa in July. I understand that I’m not allowed to work on a student visa, but I’ve recently been offered a remote job from abroad. I would like to switch to a DTV visa to ensure that I’m fully compliant with the laws in Thailand.

My questions are:

1. How can I show proof of my salary (which will be paid through SWIFT to my Thai bank account) given that I’m not currently allowed to work on a student visa?

2. Over the past three years, I haven’t paid any taxes because I was on a student visa. I’ve been living off savings from my previous job. If they ask for proof of tax payments, how should I handle this situation?

I’d greatly appreciate any advice, suggestions, or alternative approaches. Thanks!
