Just a quick question if anyone can help. When you apply for a 12 month extension of a non O student visa and guardian visa is this normally issued on the day of application ? There is normally no under consideration period ? Thanks in advance

For those who are here on the DTV and had their bank accounts closed, what are the options to get a new bank account if you are under 50? If they refuse to open new accounts to people on tourist visas (DTV included), is the only option to either get married or simply buy the Elite visa? I cant imagine living here without a bank account so trying to find a solution to this. Buying the elite visa just for a bank account is not a good option.

Hello my name is andre, i have been planning on moving to thailand for the past couple years and I think it's finally time to take the leap. Would I be able to take six months to a year of thai language classes out in town underneath the education visa and then leave the school once i'm completed with the program to then attend school at chulalong? Im a veteran and would like to use my gi bill. In my head, i would be underneath a student visa, but they would just have to change the details underneath my file.When it came for immigration. Or would they look at it like i'm applying for a second student visa... And start putting up a fuss and start scrutinizing and asking questions, regardless, they'll ask questions. Does anybody here know anyone or anything about the possibilities of approval for this visa strategy.

Hi everyone 👋

I’m looking into getting an ED visa to study Thai in Bangkok, and I’d really appreciate some advice.

* What are the most reputable Thai language schools in the city that people recommend for the ED visa?

* Any tips or experiences (good or bad) you’ve had with schools, the visa process, or things to look out for?

Thanks a lot for any insights 🙏

Hello everyone,

I am Iranian and currently in Thailand with a one-year student visa. If I want to apply for the Thailand DTV visa for next year, do I necessarily need to return to my home country, or can I apply from neighboring countries as well?

Hey guys, I need some advice on a dual passport issue.

I have Israeli and French passports. Been in Thailand 2 years on a Non-B visa with the Israeli one, now switching to a student visa. The visa office asked me to re-enter with my French passport.

Problem: my flights are already booked like this:

-Chiang Mai → BKK → Vietnam (Israeli)

-Vietnam → BKK (French)

-BKK → Chiang Mai (Israeli) (booked this one long ago thats why its on israeli)

Goal is to enter Thailand on the French passport, but the flights are mixed. Did I mess up?

Since my tickets from Vietnam in on my french one ill need to enter Vietnam with my french one too isnt it?
