Hi there, is anyone aware of converting a tourist visa exemption to Non B for teaching? My employer isn’t really sure right now. Thanks

Answer summary

The conversation discusses the possibility of converting a tourist visa exemption to a Non-B visa for teaching in Thailand. It mentions that it is possible for individuals with a tourist visa exemption to switch to a 90-day Non-B visa through an immigration office, provided that the employer meets specific documentation requirements. The process reportedly costs 2000 baht, and applicants need to have a minimum of 15 to 21 days remaining on their current visa, depending on the immigration office.

Yep, people can and have totally gone from a 45 day visa exempt entry stamp to a 90 day in country Non-B visa based on employment at the immigration office. It costs 2000baht, and your employer needs to meet the documentation requirements for it. You also need at least 15 day and sometimes 21 days (depending on the office you apply at) left on your current stamp to apply.

Your best bet would be to take someone from your employer TO the immigration office and get the hand out listing the requirements to get an in country 90 day Non-B visa.
