ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi,  I'm an Indian. My husband is working here in Bangkok.  He is an Indian  too. He has just submitted his passport for extension. I had come to Bangkok on 27th of may on tourist visa and have a air ticket for 8th July. Now I feel like staying there in Bangkok with my hubby.  So,  is it possible to get a Thai dependent visa where i am already here on tourist visa?

TLDR : Answer Summary

A person who entered Thailand on a tourist visa is inquiring whether they can switch to a Thai dependent visa while already in the country, given their husband is working there and has applied for a visa extension. One commenter notes that if the individual came on a visa on arrival, they cannot change this visa type but can extend it for 7 days at the immigration office.
