Hi all, I'm new to the forum but I've been in Thailand about 3 years now. I have been relying on tourifst visas for that timem but with all the new laws I'm trying to switch up to a student visa. I am taking a language course and the school has already applied for a visa for me. My questions:

Is there any chance that the embassy could turn me down for the visa after getting the acceptance letter for the visa from the ministry of education?

And is the thai embassy in vietnam, am i likely to encounter much resistance? Are they strict there? I have no experience other than in Laos.

Thanks a lot everybody.

I was in Hanoi in July, and I found the guys at the Thai Embassy to be courteous and efficient. My Tourist Visa took one day - I submitted my application in the morning and it was waiting for me the following afternoon. They will ask to see your flight details out of Vietnam, so include a copy of your ticket with your application. Two other things: you will need to get a visa approval letter [go to www.Vietnam-Immigration.Org, or vietnamvisaexpress.com for this - it will cost about 25USD including handling charge], and get your one-month visa [for another 25USD] at the airport in Vietnam; and take USD with you, it is the preferred currency. Enjoy the bread. They sure know how to bake baguettes!

      FBI redacted Trump's name in Epstein files

      Ghislaine Maxwell was recently moved to a federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas, where gunfire broke out near the facility in the early morning of August 9. According to the Substack, sources are calling the events surrounding the shooting “highly suspicious,” with conversations inside the prison reportedly alluding to this being an attempted break-in aimed at Maxwell. One insider also noted there was a second attempt a few days later, which went unreported in the news. “I think there is a high likelihood Maxwell could be killed or moved — I just don’t see her walking out of there alive,” one source dished, referring to how easily accessible the facility is compared to more maximum security prisons. Fears Erupt Over Ghislaine Maxwell's Safety After Shooting Near Her New Texas Prison: 'She Could Be Killed,' Insider Claims Inspector Tiger will sort it out. ' No murder? Oh! I don't like it. Too simple, too clear cut.'

      Zelensky v Putin

      For someone crying about deflection you certainly are no stranger to the subject. Biden’s watch , Biden’s responsibility. Can’t pass the buck to Trump no matter how hard you keep trying.

      Thai/UK Dual National renewing UK Passport.

      I posted this on the visas to others countries forum. Not really sure where to put it. Does anybody have an answer. "My ex wife renewing her UK passport has been told to send her Thai passport with the UK application. I can't think of a single reason why that is necessary. Has some strange rule come into place where dual nationals in the UK need to show their national passport when renewing their UK passport?"

      Student Injured After Being Run Over at Udon Thani School

      Picture courtesy of Matichon. A student was injured after being accidentally run over by a pick-up truck driven by the husband of a teacher at a prominent school in Udon Thani. The incident occurred on 18 August at approximately 17:50 in the school’s concrete dome area, where the student was waiting for his parents. The driver, arriving to collect his wife, reportedly did not notice the child and ran over the student’s lower back, resulting in a fractured pelvis. The school immediately rushed the boy to Udon Thani Hospital, where doctors continue to monitor his condition closely. Speaking to reporters, Mr. Payakkaphon Rodchomphu, the school principal, expressed his deep concern, stating that such an incident had never occurred before. He confirmed that both the driver and the school have insurance to cover the child’s medical treatment and assured parents that the student would receive full support. “The safety of our students is our top priority,” said Mr. Rodchomphu. “Normally, children remaining at school after 16:00 are supervised, and incidents are minor. This was completely unexpected. We will strengthen safety measures and may restrict vehicles from entering the dome area to prevent similar accidents in the future.” Police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.
