Hi everyone,

Do you know if foreigner have NON-B Visa and they would like to change the Visa to NON-O marriage with Thai wife. Can they convert the visa at Chaengwattana Immigration, Thailand without leave the country?

Kindly appreciate for your answer my questions.
Answer summary
A foreigner cannot convert a NON-B visa directly to a NON-O visa in Thailand. Instead, they must apply for a new Extension of Stay based on the new circumstance.

NO, you can not convert from one Non Immigrant visa into another Non Immigrant Visa. You can apply for a new Extension of Stay with another reason.

many of US do not know the difference between extension of stay and visa. Me also, until I joined this group.
