Can an Indian citizen apply for a Non-Immigrant O visa in Thailand as a dependent and extend it?

Question: my husband is Indian, I got work permit so we think he should get non immigrant O visa. We understood that as Indian citizen he can do it only from India, is it true? Also, could he extend it after the 3 months visa finish or does he need to go back India and ask a new one? Thank you 🙏🏼

TLDR : Answer Summary
An Indian citizen must return to India to apply for a Non-Immigrant O visa as a dependent of a work permit holder in Thailand. Once he obtains the visa, he will receive a 90-day stay in Thailand. If the primary visa holder has an Extension of Stay based on work, he can apply for a matching extension as a dependent without needing to return to India for a new visa.

He need to go back to India and apply for the Non Immigrant O visa as dependant. If he comes back with this visa into Thailand he gets 90 days of stay. If you're on an Extension of Stay based on working, he can apply for an Extension of Stay matching your stay as our dependent

No, if you have an Extension of Stay from the Immigration Office in the area where you live and work, he must apply at the same office.

I ask because now he is in India and soon I will go as well and we are planning to come back together and spend from November to April in Thailand, we hope he doesn’t have to go out after 90 days
