Hello to everyone. Does someone have any experiences or knowledge about the DTV (destination Thailand Visa) relating to the version of this visa which includes Thai Soft Power Activities ? Is learning Thai language in this category?

Thank you for your help and support. 🙏😊🙏

If I do a one year Thai course and get the ED visa, but switch to online classes during the, will the visa still be valid?

I'm keen to learn Thai but will give birth during the year, so in-person classes might not be so practical with a newborn.

The school says this is fine, but I'm wondering if online classes are really allowed with the ED visa. Any thoughts?

Hi, I am currently holding a NON B extension (one year) and work permit but I am planning to quit job end of July. I want to stay in the kingdom, what are my options? Can I get an education visa (Thai language course) without leaving the country?

TIA.

Hi I have a question regarding Education Visa. I intend to apply for a Thai language course and I understand that after the school applies from the Ministry of Education and sends an approval letter, I'll have to take this letter and fly to Vientiane (because land borders are closed) to apply at the Thai Embassy there. Assuming the visa application goes well, upon returning by flight into Bangkok, what documents do I need to show the airport immigration upon entering?

We are currently in Thailand on a visa exempt until May 10th and are considering a Thai language course with online lessons. Do you know if non-ED visas are currently being issued? Thank you

Hey guys, did anyone get the ED visa (Thai language course) from the Thais embassy in Seoul , South Korea ?

Is it advisable to go there ? What’s their reputation?

Anyhow, where is the “best” embassy to go to at the moment in Asia ?

Swiss passport

Thanks in advance

Yesterday, I was about to start paperwork with my school for a second ED visa.

They told me that if I want to go to Vientiane or HCMC, I need to switch course to Chinese language. (I have studied Thai with them for one year.)

This conveniently, for them, charges me an additional 5,000฿ to attend. (I have no interest in learning Chinese but would like to improve my Thai.)

They think or are unsure if my application will be approved by saying I will study a second year of Thai.

Are they right? Is this a money grab?

I again reached out for help and was told by an authority on these matters:

“Vientiane will only issue another ED visa (no matter the subject) IF you have a year from the date of issue from the previous visa.”

It’s will have been over a running year since my first ED visa was issued early September 2018 and I intend to apply for a new ED in November 2019.

I hope this is helpful to others.

If anyone has experience that confirms this or that is to the contrary, your comments are welcome. Thanks.

Hi, I have a question on ED visa. I had ED visa from Nov 2018 to Jul 2019 studying basic/intermediate Thai Language. Now I’m back to my home country (Vietnam) and wish to return to Bangkok for another ED visa. My previous school recommended me to take up English course instead as I will have difficulty passing the written exam. I went to HCMC Consulate yesterday with all the required documents but was rejected. The officer told me that I can’t change from Thai to English for my 2nd ED Visa. How true is that? I have already bought air tickets to Bangkok on 01 Oct. I was planning to enter Bangkok on tourist visa and then maybe head off to Laos, Penang, etc for my ED visa. Please advise. Thanks guys.
