Can I extend my NON-B visa and work permit from the Thai embassy in India, or do I need to apply for a new one?
Hi I have non B visa and work permit which are going to be expired on June 6/6/20. Currently I am stuck in India supposed to go back to Thailand on May 4th. My school advised me to visit Thai embassy in India. I would like to know that my visa will be extended or I have to get a new visa.

I am holding a NON B Business had similar issue as my extension was expiring on 30th April and recieved it on 16th april as flights not available and amnesty till July.I took it up with thai embassy in delhi who advised me to speak to korat immigration my friend went there and spoke to the head he told us to apply for a new one as amnesty covers only those inside thailand.Then I took it up with MOS external affairs who directed Mrs.Durai the indian ambassador to update me she got the same reply I need to apply for fresh NON B and promised me to help in any other issue. Even korat immigration officers also tried to check in their rule books but nothing so as your case is similar one you need to apply again and contacting thai embassy here in delhi is a waste.

I think you should apply for a new visa.

Probably visit the Thai embassy in India as you’ve been advised to do already

nope, your visa will not be extended (seeing as thai embassy and consulates can't extend visas)
IF you can't get back into thailand before this current visa expires you'd need to buy a new one before you come back
IF you can't get back into thailand before this current visa expires you'd need to buy a new one before you come back

you can petition them if you like but you'll still need to get yourself a new visa.

this is wellKnown that nobody can enter in Thailand due to flight suspension. I think they should consider the fact.
