Wondering how they were called now, not sure anymore, maybe STV. Those were special tourist visas that were a pain to apply for (high financial requirements, etc.). They were made available a bit before covid, I think. One could stay for 1 year in Thailand, if memory serves.

OK, I did not know. But I guess it's not an issue if one attends classes and studies genuinely.

Water bill is good.

You should not worry too much about the kids, but maybe school documents?

Note: Attending is required though. Otherwise they may not approve your next 3-month extension...

@Greg *******

I'm not sure, but I don't think they would be reluctant to issue a multiple re-entry permit to a non-imm ED language student. Exiting Thailand and returning does not necessarily mean that you spend a lot of time outside Thailand.

Not sure if SETV are still issued, and they were not exactly hassle-free, if memory serves. Personally, I'd go for an ED visa, but you'd need to study Thai (or another language), and it's not exactly cost-efficient since you have to pay for the courses. However: No need to leave Thailand for a year, one can *theoretically* open a bank account, the school handles extensions, etc.

Participant(e) anonyme Mais non, de toutes façons il faut tous les combiner dans un seul PDF. Par exemple, les relevés de compte (les vrais, pas un « historiques des déclarations »), c'est 6 documents, tu seras bien obligé de les combiner. Rien que pour les documents financiers, j'ai combiné 8 documents dans un seul PDF.

Participant(e) anonyme If I ever work for them, I will make sure to think about you guys who find the TDAC cumbersome, I promise. Please make sure on your side to talk to someone about the TM.47 and the TM.30 forms.

Participant(e) anonyme Well if you live here, then you remember the TM.6.

You've been away for 1.5 years, you should be able to come on a visa exemption.
