Hi All,

I'm about to go to Thailand for long term stay on a marriage visa. I'm having delays to get my Canadian marriage certificate. Is it possible to go to Thailand on a tourist visa (60 days) and change it to a Non-immigrant-O inside Thailand? With all the quarantine and pandemic, I don't want to leave and quarantine again. Thank you :)
