The IRS office needs to know which Thai Embassy or Consulate you are
going to apply for your student visa in order to address documents
to that location.
You should never try to enter as a tourist if you are coming to Thailand
as a full-time student. The procedure to change your visa status is
cumbersome and will take up a lot of your time. In order to change
your visa status after you have entered Thailand, you are required
to have at least 30 valid days until your present visa expires. Several
documents are required from both the university and you, which will
take time to produce. Therefore, we strongly advise that you enter
Thailand with the appropriate non-immigrant visa to avoid visa problems.
Once the Thai immigration officer has admitted you into the country,
your passport will be stamped with the conditions of entry. The expiry
date of your entry stamp supersedes your visa. This means you will
have to renew your visa and/or conditions of stay before the expiry
date. It is this date that you Must remember, and make sure never
to over-stay your visa. Please contact IRS if you are unsure about
any of the above visa details.
