Hi,

I need help on my case, so I am appreciate every help and advice.

I am a Vietnamese who lives in Finland, I have a Finnish resident permit and a Vietnamese passport.

I will have an internship in Thailand, which lasts for 97 days so I have applied for the Non Immigrant ( ED) type). i applied 3 weeks ago on the eThai website.

I will leave Finland for Thailand this Sunday, on the 26th. And I just received email last Friday from the eThai website that my application is cancelled due to the mismatch in name, between the form and my passport one

I have submitted a new application with a corrected name and attached a speed up letter for it too.

So here come my question.

- is it still posible for me to receive a visa before my flight?

- if not, are there any viable options? I know that Vietnamese can stay 60 day visa free with tourist purpose.

Thank you.

“Has anyone successfully applied for DTV Soft Power using golf training (not Muay Thai)? Looking for experience from anyone who got approved with a sports training program other than Muay Thai.”

does scuba diving count as a soft power on dtv application say divemaster or open water scuba instruction training ?

Hello, I am currently on a Non Immigrant ED Visa (University) which expires on December 20 and I am planning to switch to a DTV (Soft Power) while I am back in the USA (October - January).

Is it absolutley necessary that I cancel my ED Visa with Immigration in person before traveling to the USA and applying for the DTV? Or will I be okay to return to the USA and let it expire on its own while I am applying for the DTV.

Thank you so much for your help!

Hi, I'm new to the group and need some advice about getting visas for my family.

We live in the UK and are moving to Chon Buri as my husband has been offered a job there.

He needs a Non Immigrant B single entry work visa. I need a Non Immigrant O visa, and our daughter needs a Non Immigrant ED visa.

Has anyone on here recently been through the same process and could share advice and information? I've been looking online but it's so confusing!

Many thanks.

Hey all! This is my first post so please go easy on me. 😅

My husband and I want to move to Thailand from the US with our 3 year old son for at least a year. We were considering the METV but are now thinking to get the SETV and then apply for the thai language ED visa once there. Based on what I’ve read here and online, there doesn’t seem to be a visa we can get for our son, however it seems the general consensus is that it’s not really an issue since there is not a fine for overstays for children under 13. That said, we are planning to move with pets and rent a house and have him enrolled in school so I don’t want to risk not being able to get back in to Thailand if we take a trip to explore neighboring countries. Does our plan seem reasonable? What do you think is the best/easiest way for us to spend 12 months+ in Thailand without risking being refused entry for too many visa runs?

I appreciate any thoughts or advice you may have for us! Thanks so much. 🙂

Good morning all

A few years back I did an ED visa studying Thai. Can anyone tell me if it’s possible to do that again after a few years ? Or if I should go for the Muay Thai visa instead.

Thank you.

Hi,

Next year I will study in Thailand at two different institutions for a total of 18 months. I need a student visa for both of these, but from what I've found student visas only last 12 months and you can't apply for a seperate student visa while in Thailand. Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can get a student visa to cover 18 months across 2 schools?

Thankyou

Hello everyone:)

I have a question regarding the cancellation policy of Non Immigrant ED Visa Extension: will I have any problems at the airport exiting Thailand if I don’t cancel my visa extension in advance? I have to leave Thailand due to personal reasons super spontaneously and don’t have the time to get the paper work. I know that if I ever plan to come back for work I will have to cancel my ED visa extension first and probably have to pay the 20k. But at the moment my biggest concern is whether they will let me exit the country with a not cancelled ED visa extension. Thank you so much

Are Non Immigrant ED visas allowed to return to Thailand at this time? Thanks in advance for your responses.
