What is an Education or Ed Visa?


An Education Visa (or ED Visa) is applicable to those individuals who come to Thailand for the following purposes:

Students who are seeking permission to study in Thailand should apply for an ED Visa at least six weeks before their trip to Thailand or if you are already in Thailand, then you should also apply for the visa at least six weeks before your current visa expires.
