Good morning, I could really need some advice now.
Currently my situation is, I am a Malaysian with Malaysia passport and have a non-B visa without extension, admitted to stay until 2nd of May 2020 with Company A.
There's a Company B have agreed with company A to buy me over, which means I need to cancel my work permit(does not required to cancel non-B because it's not extension, correct?) and leave Thailand on last day of my working day with Company A and apply new work visa and work permit with Company B.
However, due to current Covid-19 situation in Thailand (ridiculous requirement to get in) and Malaysia(border close for Malaysia nasionality to get out from country until end of this month, might extend),
Is there anyway that I can stay in Thailand and get new non-B visa. I know I can convert from tourist visa to non-B visa. But how about non-B to tourist visa?
Appreciate for any advice. Thanks.
