I’m planning to travel to Koh Tao, Thailand, to get my Dive Master and Scuba Instructor certification, but I couldn’t find anything about a visa specifically for scuba diving courses. Does anyone know if there’s a special visa for that, or should I just go with a tourist visa? I was thinking of staying for two months, then extending for another month. Would that work?
Also, if I hit the 90-day limit, would it be alright to do a border run to a nearby country like Laos or Singapore and then come back to Thailand to continue the course? I want to make sure everything is above board and legal—no funny business!
Anyone with experience, your advice would be super helpful. Thanks in advance!
Hello! My Muay Thai school has said they are hearing reports of people on an education visa extension not being able to return to Thailand even after obtaining a re-entry permit.
I am looking to leave for a weekend (I wouldn’t miss any classes) and would obtain a reentry permit. Would be my first time doing it on this visa. Is there any issue?
Hello! I am an Australian passport holder and I’m currently on an Ed visa with a Muay Thai school. I am wanting to change to DTV after my 6 months is up. Potentially in Australia as I will go home to visit family. Has anyone had experience with changing from Ed to DTV and is it straightforward? I would be applying under soft power Muay Thai with my same school. Also anyone had experience applying soft power Muay Thai from
Australia? I am also open to using an agent if anyone has a recommendation?

I’m planning on moving to Thailand permanently from the US in 2-3 months and starting to think about which visa is the best to get.
I’ve been thinking about the Education Visa. Has anybody here done that? I heard it’s possible they might not let me extend it to a different visa after that year is up. True/false?
