Can I travel to Thailand with a one-way ticket for a family visit?

Declan **********

@Jay ********

every airline I've flown with from the UK to Thailand has asked to see a return ticket pal. If you've got your Thai ID card just show them that, if you haven't they could refuse boarding because you wouldn't have a return ticket.

Are they registered in Thailand and have their ID card? If yes, then yes, if no, then you need to go about getting them registered and their ID card first.

if you have a bachelor in education or higher and 1 year teaching experience in your home country or 2 years in Thailand you only need to sit the Krusapha test, you do not need the 9 month top up course.

Can I bring my wife and child with me on an ED visa to Thailand?

Declan **********

You will need to do a degree/masters/PhD at a university and find a university that will support the applications. Language/Muay thai/Cooking etc schools can not support dependency visas.

Need to sit an exam, if you pass the exam set out by the Krusapa then you'll get your Thai teaching licence.

@Christine ******

you can get 2 license waivers which is 4 years, it is possible to get a 3rd waiver if you can prove you have enrolled in a top up course if you're not a licensed teacher in your home country near the end of your 2nd waiver.

Can a foreign teacher with a work permit teach privately at home in Thailand?

Declan **********

@Ian *********

no, it's not legal. Anyone who tells you otherwise is clueless or trolling. Your work permit only allows you to work at the school.

The only exception for this would be if you are still teaching at home for the school.

Every office has different requirements. You need to visit your local immigration office and ask for the check list.
