Okay

, thanx to

@Ar***

you have the requirements needed to do an in country conversion from a 30 day visa exempt entry or a 60 day tourist visa entry to a 90 day Non-B without making the trip to the immigration office.

I'd say give those sheets to whoever pushes paper for you where you're employed and see if they can meet the requirements so you can do the Non-B in country. If not, I see another trip to a thai consulate in your near future ;)

Good Luck

Its a convoluted process. daunting to say the least.

Page 1. Might be helpful. Solely depends if you and your company qualifies to submit all these docs.

I'd say GO to the immigration office, get the hand out that lists the requirements and see if your company can even meet the documentation requirements to get an in country 90 day Non-B visa.

Many companies can't do it, and thats why they send their employees out of the country to get the visa from a thai consulate instead

If your Immigration Office can stamp the Non B visa in your passport, it will be for 90 days. After 60 days you apply for the 1 year Extension of Stay and when stamped in, you apply directly for the multiple Re-Entry Permit.

That is totally going to depend on the company you work for and if they can meet the documentation in country to go from a 30 day visa exempt entry or a tourist visa entry to a 90 day Non-B visa.

Your best bet is have someone from your company go out to the immigration office (if it's in Bangkok it's section C-2) and get the hand out that lists the requirements.

In bangkok you need 15 days remaining on your current stamp to apply for an in-country Non-B visa.
