Contact Wise customer service and discuss with them. They can change transfer to swft instead of local transfer. The fees will be different and will take longer.

Thailand it is based on when the result are done.. But most places require based on swab. You will need to check your airlines requirement. It very likely would be 72hr from swab instead.... And also Singapore vaccinated travel lane flights do require 48 as mentioned already.

this is what they originally told me. So there is a possibility of extending beyond 8 months?

@Garrett **********
those are agent visas? I am on Thai ed visa. It is 90 days with 60 day extension. I believe was told only 8 months in single stay, could be a 1 year if non English speaker.

Right now many schools are online due to covid. I attend ALA, they said we could stay online for awhile even after I class would be allowed again. You can consider that.

I believe the longest single stay on an Thai ed visa for native English speaker is 8 months. So only 2 longer than what you thinking about 6.

Print it, don't hand write it.

Just make a self identifing statement of who you are, name, dob, and passport number and then say you live at what address. Make sure it's full address including district and sub district. All in English.

A 30 day extension to visa exempt is easy to get.

Passport and entry stamp (and photo copy)

Tm6 (and photo copy)

Application

Photo

1900 baht

Requirements may vary a bit office to office. Some will want to see evidence of tm30 filed, or want additional documents of where you are stay etc.

The STV is not as bad people make it seem, most people that say this were never on the visa. I did the STV. The requirements in your local embassy regarding background and health check might make it easy or difficult (in Taipei they didn't require).

It is a little less flexible, because you do need your accommodation planned out each 90 days, so it's not good for travel.. But if you just going to stay in the same spot, no issue.

@Sreekarthiga ********
that's probably because they were entering Thailand, not transiting on same ticket.
