If you're planning to stay in Thailand with an Education (ED) visa, choosing the right school is important. Many schools offer Thai language courses, but not all of them support students properly. Some even charge hidden fees or leave you to deal with immigration alone.
📍
Hidden Visa Fees
Be careful of schools that advertise cheap prices but later ask for extra money for visa support. Some schools say, “Visa help is not included,” after you already paid. This can cost you a lot more than expected. At Wave, we help with the full visa process—no surprise fees.
📍
No Immigration Help
Some schools don’t guide students at all. They give you a letter and expect you to handle the rest. Thai immigration can be confusing, especially if you don’t speak Thai. A good school helps you with every step: applying, extensions, 90-day reports, and more.
📍
Missed Paperwork = Visa Trouble
If a school forgets to submit your paperwork or gives you the wrong documents, your visa can be denied or canceled. This can lead to big problems—fines, visa overstays, or needing to leave the country fast.
✅ ED visas are one of the easiest ways to stay in Thailand long-term—but only if your school supports you. Ask questions before you join. Make sure the school explains the full visa process and gives real help, not just promises.
