Will my SETV e-visa be accepted at a land immigration office in Thailand if I exit and re-enter on the same day?

Keven ****

Thanks.

About the last part, yeah, can't avoid the full passport page $50 USD on-arrival visa sticker (for 1 day). 😆 Was mostly hoping to be able to avoid staying at a hotel. To walk around the city a bit, and then go back to Thailand on the same day. Do land IOs frown a bit on same-day exits and re-entering?

Can you extend a METV in Thailand after 60 days, or do you need to leave the country?

What details do I need to provide when applying for a Non-Immigrant ED visa for language studies in Thailand?

Keven ****

Like Robert said, you need documents from your school to get a Non-Immigrant ED visa. And your school should be clearly instructing you about what to do. If they aren't, you might want to check reviews online and re-evaluate if this is a good school or not.

This comment should be stickied in a FAQ and be obligatory reading before posting about METV.

And I hope you pasted that from a text file and didn't re-type it all out.

What is the best visa option for a family moving to Thailand for a year with a child?

Keven ****

Get the METV. Even if you don't use all the re-entries. You can only get it in your home country. If your plans change, you'll be happy you'll have gotten it.

Can I start working in Thailand on a work visa the same day I submit my documents?

Keven ****

A lot of schools will try to get you to work even if you don't have your visa sorted out. If you're being hired, it means students aren't being taught at the moment. But it's not legal.

Keven ****

Hi Ellie, that's useful to know. Would you have more info about this? From what source did you get this? I would be willing to work during the work permit application (with a Non-Immigrant B visa), but would only do this if I'm sure it's legal.

How many times can a US citizen apply for a 60-day tourist visa for Thailand in a calendar year?

@Daniel ********

I doubt 4 in one year. That's a full 12 months of back-to-back SETVs.

Can I switch from an Education Visa to a Work Permit in Thailand?

Keven ****

Probably still unlikely. A whole bunch of effort for almost nothing, when you could simply go out of the country for a day or two. Don't know why you so much insist on avoiding a short trip, and create a whole bunch of challenges and work for people. Might not even work in the end.
