What visa options do 18-year-old sons of a USAF retiree need to consider for studying in Thailand?

Geoff *******

I've been coming to Thailand regularly for the past 8 years and have never felt or experienced any discrimination based on colour by immigration, or any other Thai officials. Always allowed in without any problems on SETVs and visa exemptions ... so far.

When does the 30-day extension start for my tourist visa in Thailand?

Geoff *******

Yes, I was caught out once. I had assumed a day was 24 hours! Not in Thailand, a day can be only 5 mins, as you say. I was out by a day and overstayed a day. Only got a finger-wagging on the way out though.
