DTV Visa Culinary School Thailand Visa Application Immigration Advice Study in Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone! I’m planning to apply for a DTV through a culinary school in Phuket. I’ve been offered to buy an invitation certificate, but I’d rather find a place that allows me to actually take classes. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Also, for those who have applied for the DTV, what was the process like? Is it easier than applying as a worker? And do you think there will be fewer questions about taxes and other things?

I’d really appreciate any advice, as I’m still figuring out the best way to go about this.
