hullmonkey1 Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 I just spoke to the thai consulate in Hull, UK and they couldnt give me an answer. my 2 sons aged 13 and 14 are going to attend school in thailand for the next few years. The only 2 options are a single or multiple entry visa. Will they have to make border runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted March 2, 2008 Share Posted March 2, 2008 If they are going to an authorized school they can obtain ED visa/one year extensions of stay and will not require border runs under section 7.8 with proof as below, they would enter on a single entry visa and then extend there stay at an Immigration office inside Thailand at a cost of 1,900 baht per year. 1. Petition Forms2. Copy of Passport of the Applicant 3. Copy of the Institute’s educational license issued from related government sector. 4. Certify letter requesting for continuous of study from that education institute illustrating the course details and its duration and transcript 5. Must be certified by a related government sector or by the Provincial Mayor which is responsible for that education institute (exempted in the case of studying in an international school and undergraduate level) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the single entry visa (3 months) is the best option. The border runs could have been a real pain in the arse as I work ouside thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
