Question about visas: I entered Thailand on a non-b visa but things didnt work out with my first employer. I left the country and went to Laos for a border run and re-entered on a tourist visa so my second employer could convert it to a non-b. once again, things did not work out. now i have a new job that starts in mid-october but my tourist visa currently ends on september 27th. should i go to immigration and get a 30 day renewal or should i leave and re-enter again? how long should i leave for? should ask my new job for a letter to help me at the border? im afraid of being denied at the border but i would do it by air this time to another country instead of by bus like the last time.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on how to handle their tourist visa, which is expiring soon, before starting a new job in Thailand. They originally entered on a non-B visa due to work, switched to a tourist visa for a new employer, but need to know if they should extend their current visa or leave and re-enter Thailand. Community comments suggest consulting with the new employer about visa conversion timelines and paperwork, while also recommending a visa extension as an immediate solution.
