Visa application procedure: To attend school in Thailand as a student from another country, you will need to apply for a student visa. Studying in Thailand for a semester or longer requires obtaining a non-immigrant education visa valid for 90 days, which can be renewed and extended for up to a year at Thai immigration offices. You need to receive confirmation that you have been accepted into a designated course at a Thai university in order to submit an application for a visa. Your home country’s Thai consulate or embassy will need certain documentation from you, like an acceptance letter, application form, valid passport, passport photos, and proof of adequate funds (20,000 baht per person, or approximately US$360), at your scheduled appointment. Contact your local Thai embassy or consulate for more information on fees and how to apply.
