Good evening,
I am a volunteer teacher in a migrant school in Mae Sot and returned again to Thailand on April 21 with a 3 month Non-O B visa, which then expires on 19 July 2019. I also have a work permit, valid until October. This was organised through a Thai foundation, with an appropriate donation, which I was quite happy with.
However as of the end of June, I will not be volunteer teaching in Thailand any more. I would like to stay (until I had planned to return to Australia in December) but want to avoid paying any further fees for "sponsorship" and work permit I don't need.
So I would appreciate guidance on how/what may be the best way/visa to do that.
Thanks in anticipation. :)
