Has anyone been asked about their Muay Thai training contract upon returning to Thailand? When I applied for a DTV visa a year ago, I had a six-month contract with a Muay Thai school, but it expired while I was outside Thailand for over three months. I want to return. Do I need to sign a new contract before arriving, or can I return without a new contract with a Muay Thai club?

Hello, everyone!

I have my work permit and my visa extension ( 1 year till March, 15). I left the country in April, I was planning to come back, but my position was cancelled. So, I did not come back. I read many posts that the wp must be cancelled, same like a visa. Or I could have problems to come back to Thailand later. Maybe someone has had the same situation.

I was not worried at all, untill I read some comments that the wp and the visa extension must be cancelled before leaving, but I got a U-turn, so it was different. I am not sure if my agency/school cancelled my documents. I am planning to call to my embassy. But I would like to ask you for some advice.

Just reading some breaking news of 10am, a bomb reportedly exploded at the Government Complex in Chaeng Wattana if anybody is heading out there. Other explosions reported across Bangkok
