Hello everyone, I’m a British in Thailand waiting to go back to China to work. Due to the coronavirus the Chinese borders are close for foreigners until  further notice. (When will that be I don’t know). Now I’m interested in working in Thailand and wait for next year when things should get better.
I came into Thailand on a 30 days visa on arrival and  extended for another 30days at the  local  immigration office. Now I’m on the free emergency visa that The Thai government have given to foreigners until the 31st  July 2020.
I understand that in Thailand when you get a student or work visa you would have to get it from the Thai Embassy or consulate outside the kingdom.
Now in Thailand, are there any other ways of getting a work visa from a tourist or an
emergency visa in Thailand? especially, now with the coronavirus time.
TLDR : Answer Summary
A British expat in Thailand is looking to transition from a tourist visa and current emergency visa to a work visa while waiting to return to China due to COVID-19. He seeks information on options available for obtaining a work visa without leaving Thailand, especially during ongoing restrictions.
