The Non-Immigrant ED PLUS Visa is a specialized variant of Thailand's education visa, introduced in June 2024 and effective through 2025, designed specifically for international students pursuing bachelor's degrees or higher at accredited Thai universities or institutions under the Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation (MHESI). Unlike the standard ED Visa (which covers language schools, internships, and lower-level programs), the ED PLUS offers enhanced flexibility for full-time higher education students, including multiple re-entries without permits and post-graduation options. It promotes genuine academic pursuits while addressing visa misuse concerns through stricter 2025 enforcement on attendance and reporting.

This visa does not permit employment during studies, but graduates can leverage a 1-year extension for job hunting or other activities. As of November 2025, applications are streamlined via the e-Visa system, with no major changes from early 2025 guidelines, though immigration emphasizes compliance amid broader visa reforms (e.g., 60-day visa-exempt entries and crackdowns on overstays).

Apply for the Ed plus visa if you do it

The Ed Plus visa is the best Ed Visa

No a 60 day visa exemption stamp is what you get every single time you enter Thailand

If you go to Vietnam you will stamp out and have exhausted the stamp you came in on

When you return you will get another 60 day visa exemption stamp…if the I/O grants access

It’s not multi entry

It’s not a visa

It’s a visa exemption stamp

Whether you stay 2 hours or 60 days you get the visa exemption stamp

Every single time

Unless you buy a multi entry or single entry visa

Good luck

If you’re super worried just go to a hotel for 1-2 nights

Then do your 90 day report

Send ฿90k a month then

No idea I see the officer in the booth always

The Thais have an Egate they can use which is totally automated no officer at all

I believe only Thai nationals can use this…

maybe PR holders can use the E-Gate as well I’m not sure so if I’m wrong someone will point this out to me in a trollish manner

To buy anything you don’t need a visa

If the foreigner rents it through an agency it’s legit

+++++++++

Thai definition on work:

performing any occupation or activity, whether with an employer or independently, that involves exercising physical energy or employing one’s knowledge or expertise

+++++++++++++++++.

So basically if the foreigner does anything in the way work is defined…you need a WP TIN and a visa

Change my mind

The airport check in and immigration are 2 separate entities

She will depart the UK on her UK passport

Enter Thailand on her Thai passport

Depart Thailand on her Thai passport

Enter the UK on her UK passport

Thai citizens don’t have to do the TDAC

Just go to a photocopy place near the immigration office

They know everything
