Can I extend my Non-B visa if I change schools in Thailand?

Okay, IF there is a company name written on the visa itself you cannot use it to get an extension IF you change jobs :/ You need a new 90 day Non-B with the correct company name on it.

The good news is you can stay for the 90 days that visa gives you because even if you quit an employer can't cancel a visa.

This is a Non-B issued from Vientiane that is company specific; note the thai sticker above the visa. Most consulates just write the name of the company on the visa itself.

Where are you based and are your two schools in the same area?

My partner got their work permit transferred across and then redid the 1 year extension once the new work permit was ready.

It's important for the two schools to speak and work together in transferring the permit.

If successful, you don't need to redo your non b

Some consulates will write down the name of the school on your initial Non B visa. If the Visa is not linked, by this writing you can apply with the work permit and papers from your school for the Extension of Stay. This Extension of Stay is than linked to your employer.

I was told on this forum a few weeks ago by the moderator

@Lloyd *******

that Penang no longer issue Non-B multis to people that are not shareholders or directors of the company.

Interesting question.

Tamarin, kindly stop worrying your head off. As long as you have the non B visa, that is all that matters. Extension of the visa has nothing to do with the workplace. Thanks
