I am currently on a Non B visa with 90 day reporting . As I am on Koh Samui and the immigration office here don't let us do the 90 days report I am now on the visa Amnesty .

This morning I was at the immigration office to ask what are the options in my situation just to get to hear that I can get a stamp at the airport if I fly out . In other words , I will have to leave the country before 26 September .

Is there any way to avoid this as I have my family , business and home here ?

For many years I have been doing all the visa runs and paid my taxes , work permit and so on . This situation start to really piss me off .

Anybody in the same situation here with any idea ? Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on staying in Thailand with a Non-B visa, facing challenges due to the inability to report every 90 days at the local immigration office. With a business and family in Thailand, they are frustrated by the requirement to leave the country before September 26 due to visa amnesty. Community members clarify the terms of their visa situation and suggest applying for a one-year extension based on employment, but the user indicates that their business conditions make this difficult.

I close it for commenting, Sorry but you can not change inside the country from one Non Immigrant visa into another Non Immigrant visa,

Next to this, whatever you propose, please read first, he runs a company for many years, he need a stay that is valid to work in combination with a Work Permit,

And your ED Visa is employment prohibited,

Then apply for the 1 year Extension of Stay based on employment

Then there are no further options. Sorry, but it is your choice

Or you use a visa that allows you only 90 days inside the country,

Or you use an Extension of Stay for which you have to do 90 day reporting at Immigration

there is no such thing as a Non-B with 90 day reporting :O

You are either on an EXTENSION OF STAY based on employment that you got from the immigration office and where you 90 day reporting

OR

You're on a year long, multi-entry Non-B visa that you got from a thai consulate where you bounce out and in every 90 days and where you don't do 90 day reporting
