The head of the Immigration Police announced a tightening in tracking the extension of student, medical and volunteer visas. Schools and foundations will have to submit quarterly certificates on the academic performance of foreign students and the activities of foundation employees. In the absence of such certificates, visas will be automatically canceled, and foreigners must leave the country. The tightening is connected with the corruption scandal in the immigration police, which hit the headlines of Thai newspapers, when three high-ranking officers were caught taking bribes for issuing permits for a longer stay to 3,000 Chinese, many of whom were engaged in illegal commercial activities. So if you have a student/volunteer visa, but at the same time you do not show up for classes/work, do not be surprised if at some point your visa is canceled and you are required to leave the country within 7 days. The truth about the cancellation of the visa may not be reported and you will have an overlay, and everything is very bad with him.
