Hey guys, 

I got a NonB teaching visa that ends on the 31st of march and I got a contract with a new school for another NonB teaching visa (but in another school). Will I have to leave the country for a change of school or can I go to the immigration directly with all the good paperworks and get it done ?

Of course There is no visa run option  I guess and if I go back to France I'll be stuck there. Thanks for your help

Answer summary

The user is seeking advice on whether they can switch to a new school under a Non-B teaching visa without leaving Thailand, or if they must exit the country. There are mixed responses, with one suggesting that visa runs might still be possible, while another indicates that the Labour office now typically requires an applicant to obtain a new Non-B visa.

I have some insight here. In previous years you were able to transfer within the country, but the Labour office now insists you get a new non-b. Technically immigration can do it, but then you will struggle for the work permit. Best to start afresh....

I believe you can still do visa run for now?

Can someone correct me if I'm wrong...
