No it’s a combo 3 days for language 1 day for culture. Got it so 3 month increments. I’m ok with testing since, like I mentioned, I’ve alreafy been learning from my friend. Ok I think it’s sorted since it says it takes 30-45 days and I’m still traveling for 46 days if all goes as planned. Hope I don’t have to hit Laos since I will be in Sri Lanka next month and it would be a wasted Laos visit. Appreciate the info. Question, what happens if I turn 50? Are they more strict ?

I’m not looking to not go to class and I stay in Chiang Mai. I am traveling Bali and Sri Lanka so those are where I can go to embassy. My friend is already enrolled in the school I reached out to. It’s a legit school and my intention is to learn Thai. I have many Thai friends and love languages. So this is all legit I just want to follow the rules properly. I think the school I chose can help me figure it out so when I return I will have the proper papers dialed in. I just did not want to re enter on another tourist visa since my plan was to go to class and it starts Jan 4.

Oh and I am looking at the 6 month program TSL/Culture classes.

Not over 50

I did not over stay. I had a 30 day on 1st entry because IO ignored the visa from embassy. Then I went to Laos on “visa run/holiday” I re entered and was given 90 days. I came back last month and got 30 days again I left now I’m traveling 2 months and have started to learn Thai already from my friends so decided I should go to school to properly learn and here we are. I’m not in Laos I will go to Thai embassy in Bali or Sri Lanka.

I went to Thai embassy in US and they gave me it, I just asked for a 90 day visa and got it. I had/have no clue what they all mean.

I just emailed the legit school I plan on attending. I have 3 visas 2 30 day and 1 90 day non immigrant O I think it was called.

Working on that now thanks
