I live in Cambodia at the moment on a 6 month visa and I want to go back to Thailand to study Mandarin Chinese this time (had a Thai ED visa a few years ago), but the school is asking me to get a tourist visa before I come back and apply.

I would like to know if the Thai embassy actually grants tourist visas to foreigners living in Cambodia and if there are no requierements like having to prove that I am a permanent resident (retired) or something like that. I can’t apply from my home country as I haven’t been there for 10 years and I am not planning on going back.

I have no history of border, of visa runs, or

any warnings from immigration, been visiting Thailand since 2001, but never spent more than 3-4 months a year

Those who left and came back:

Did they ask you again for proof of money in the bank?

When I did my visa i read on many places that if you leave from the country they might ask you to show again that you have money in the bank.

I don’t remember how much was it but I believe it was around $15k

Do they actually do this? Or they just let you in?

Thank you for your responses!

My child is 6 and I know I have to complete seperate application.

However, they ask for spouse/child to have bank account and money in it and proof of location. Is this just wording suited to the adult application or do I need these things for child? What would I use as proof of location? In the UK. Thank you.

Hello good people ! I would like to ask for some advice.

My last working date is April 30. Before leaving Thailand, I need to cancel my visa and work permit (WP).

1. Which one should I cancel first either visa or work permit? Meanwhile, based on the photo above, the resignation letter can be submitted up to 21 days before the resignation date. My new employer also mentioned that I can go to Immigration between April 21-25.

2. If visa cancellation can be done before my last working date, how many days can I stay in Thailand after canceling my visa?

3. Do I need to apply for a 7-day short visa extension?

I appreciate any insights. Thank you~
