How can I transition from a tourist visa to a Non-O visa in Thailand?

@Todd ********

yes it was mate these fuckers at imorgration just hate foreigners I truly believe that especially Bangkok

Roy at this moment we have been lucky they gave us three months visa for free

But to be really honest with our selves do you think they will do it again just think of the lost revenue from visa

Like I said before I went just to find out information the truth but no one would tell me a thing I was told to fill out the forms for the exstention which I New I can only get 60 days once and I didn’t really want to do it I would rather cross the boarders and come back that way me and my wife have a little holiday every 3 months seeing her mom in ubon now I am ok till September 14 but if they give us a amisty again for two or three months then I have lost 1900 plus 60 days I could have got later but like I said nobody would tell me anything so it’s Russian roulette now we wait and see and I pray the boarders open September then the next question will they let us come backing without all this quarantine which is costing the earth people are making money out of this but they always do mate

@Ta***

Wow, is that really what you guys got from my comment?

@Tony *******

my immigration told me that 30 day exempt is fine but have to extend by another 30 days (1900 bht) to allow time to do the Non O. 6O tourist visa is easier.

@To**

Sorry, you're right. Traditionally you CAN go from a tourist visa to a Non-O in the country. I have read however immigration will not go from the amnesty extension to a new visa class.
