Yes they have to but it’s not hard. Many visa agencies will also jump at the opportunity to partner & basically do the work for a Muay Thai gym. I was present recently at a gym in Isaan with one approaching with 40-50 clients from one specific country alone.
The smarter gyms will learn how to do this themselves or basically hire on/partner with a visa agent. Why you see so many big commercial resort like places offering rooms/shared rooms/hotels offering this. It’s became a business.
But it’s also possible for you to do it, the school to do what they need to on their end, etc.
Sityodtong Thailand ค่ายมวยศิษย์ยอดธง may start offering DTV soon, I wound message them. I know that fairtex offers DTV in Pattaya and wouldn’t be surprised if Venum & Silk do as well.
Have you spent much time in Pattaya before? What areas of Pattaya do you like, etc?
What are you looking for in training and what is your experience?
