TLDR : Answer Summary

To convert a Tourist Visa to a Non-Immigrant B Visa in Thailand, you should visit your local Immigration Office to determine if the conversion is possible at that location, as not all offices offer this service. Some users suggested checking available resources in specific group files for documentation requirements, such as 'ChangevisatoNon-Bdocs.pdf' and 'ChangevisatoNon-Bteachingdocs.pdf'. Additionally, it may depend on your specific circumstances, such as employment status, e.g., being a government school teacher.

Mr Tod, I have another question for my Chinese Passport friend, He wants to obtain a Tourist Visa , is it true that Chinese Passport holder needs to wait for long days before having Tourist Visa (60-day) approval?

You go to the Immigration Office in your area and ask if it is possible and if yes you ask the hand out with the requirements. Not every office in Thailand is allowed to convert and have their own specific requirements.
