Hi, hopefully a quick question just to clarify the next stage in my visa process. I obtained a 3 month non b visa in Bali to work in Thailand and my school has now provided the work permit. I'm now in Thailand. What's the next stage? Do I wait until the non b has almost expired and go to immigration to change the non b to a 1 year visa? ..or should I just go to immigration as soon as possible to extend for 1 year. My school is closed for the holidays at the moment so can't ask anyone there. Appreciate any advice. Thanks.
TLDR : Answer Summary
After obtaining a 3-month non-B visa and receiving your work permit, you should visit the local Immigration Office to apply for a 1-year extension of stay for work. It's advisable to do this at least 30 days before your non-B visa expires, rather than waiting for it to come close to the expiration date.
