Hi,

I have currently an EXTENSION OF STAY from a non-B visa and WP and looking to change my visa to Non-O (married to Thai National)

Could someone explain me the process ?

Thanks a lot in advance
Answer summary
To change your visa from a Non-B extension of stay to a Non-O visa based on marriage to a Thai national, you do not actually apply for a new Non-O visa. Instead, you can change the reason for your current extension. If you remain employed, you should change your application at the time your current extension is due to expire, fulfilling the financial requirements needed for a marriage-based extension. If you plan to quit your job, you will need documentation from your employer confirming your termination date, after which you will cancel your existing extension and apply for the new one. It's recommended to visit your immigration office to obtain a list of required documents for the application.

you will need to fulfill the financial requirements when you change the reason for your extension from work to based on marriage with a Thai

You don't get a Non-O visa, you're already on an extension of stay and all you'd do is change the reason for the extension

IF you will still be employed and do it when your current extension of stay is expiring instead of applying for another extension based on employment you apply for one based on marriage to a thai by meeting the requirements

IF you are going to quit your job you get documentation from your employer saying you stop on xxx date, go to the immigration office cancel your current extension based on employment and apply for a new yearly extension based on marriage.

Either way go to your immigration office and get the hand out listing the requirements needed to apply for a yearly extension based on marriage to a thai so when you go to change the reason you have the paperwork you need to do it

Thanks a lot

With the new extension of stay based on marriage, can i still stay in the country if my WP is canceled ? If yes how long ?

you can stay in Thailand as long as your new extension valid. Your work permit doesn't affect an extension based on marriage to Thai national.
