Visa Support

Every family's visa requirements are different — our experienced Admissions Team is here to guide you every step of the way.

Every family's visa requirements are different, and our experienced Admissions Team will provide personalised guidance based on your family's individual circumstances. Whether you are applying from within Thailand or from overseas, we will explain the process, advise you on the required documentation and support you every step of the way.

Our visa support includes:

Personalised guidance based on your family's visa requirements.
Support for applications made both inside Thailand and from overseas.
Advice on the financial requirements and supporting evidence required for your visa application.
Preparation of the official BCIS documents required to support your visa application.
Visa support documentation for each enrolled student and one parent or legal guardian.
Guidance on document timelines and renewal dates to help ensure your application is submitted on time.

Please note that visa approval is granted solely by the relevant Thai immigration authorities. While BCIS will prepare and provide the required school documentation and guide you through the process, final visa decisions remain at the discretion of the authorities.

Important for Visa Planning

Visa timing should align with school term dates. Please refer to the academic calendar when planning your child's arrival and any renewals.
