Confused with 1year ED Visa Extension?

[Chirp]

I am so confused with my visa.

I first had my ED Visa/Sticker/Stamp May 2012...from there, I was able to get extension.

After a year, I enrolled again and even went to Ministry of Education for interview then I got another for a year which I extended every 3 months between 2013-2014. I was able to go in and out of the country with no problem.

Finally, I enrolled again May of 2014...my school offered me for 1 year visa stamp, so I grabbed the chance. I got 1 year stamp until May 2015. I don't do extensions because its 1 year stamp already, my school do my 90day report, too.

My concerned is, I am going to another country next month for 10days. If I have multiple re-entry until May 2015, will they allow me to go back or my visa is illegal for getting 1 year straight? If I don't have multiple re-entry permit, if I go out then when I comeback, I will only have tourist visa? My ED visa will be automatically cancelled?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

You will get a an entry up to the date your extension ends in May.,

You should be prepared to show the equivalent of 20k baht on entry and some proof you have been attending classes.

How did you get a 1 year visa? There is no such thing, it's a 3 month visa & every 90 days you need to go an get an extension of stay. I've been doing that for all of last year & got my visa since around mid to late 2013.

He talks about an extension of stay.

He got it last year, before the new rules came into effect. At that time the 1 year extension was allowed and at some locations normal even for language schools.

1 year extensions are still given for university students.

You need to go to immigration and get a entry permit. This is what was told to me by Bangkok University. If you don't and you leave the country, your ED visa will automatically be canceled.

Can't you get it at the airport too?

Don't know, they didn't mention anything about getting it at the airport.

Re-entry permits are quickly obtained at the airport 24/7.
