Student Visa Extension Question

[rafaelo]

hi,

i have a 90 day student visa and the consulate that gave the the visa (Bali) assured me that i could get it extended for upto a year without having to leave the country as long as i went to immigration at least 21 days before it expired, with letter from my school.

my school is willing to give a letter but it is clueless as to the process...

where do i go?

office hours?

what's the procedure?

what do i need to bring?

passport copies? letter from school? photographs? etc?

what are the costs?

any and all info will be appreciated

thanks

The school should give you all the information. If you do not have a second letter from the ministry you will not be able to extend your visa.

As said - your school needs to provide the information as it is different for different types of schools - now that you have mentioned it is not a higher learning establishment or a government school the below is probably what will be required:

Documents for the application for further stay to study / work in Private Education Institutes.

Required Documents

In case of student

Immigration Form 7 (Tor Mor 7)

Copy of passport

A 4 cm. X 6 cm. Photograph

1,900 baht application fee

A certified document from the governor of the province in which the Private Educational Institute is located or from the Government Department or equivalent that takes care of the institute, document must contain details about the applicant:

Name, Family name

Age

Nationality

Passport number

Total academic years - curriculum - funding

Education transcript of the applicant - length of further stay

School license (Sor Shor 2)

The Permit / certificate to be school manager (Sor Shor 5) or Principal (Sor Shor 8)

The officials reserve the rights to examine or ask for additional documents if necessary
