Apologies if this has been asked and answered many times: where to go in Bangkok for a Covid extension application on a Non-B teaching visa (visa sticker not extension) please?

Answer summary

To apply for a Covid extension on a Non-B teaching visa in Bangkok, visit the Chaengwattana Immigration Office. It is important to do so before the deadline for applications, which is March 30. Ensure you are still within your first 90 days in Thailand, as transitioning back to a Non-B visa may be challenging if you give it up.

You entered on a Non b teaching visa ...during this COVID CoE approval process.

And to get that... you had to be approved for the visa by your employer school and Education Ministry and your name placed on an approved list to obtain permission to enter Thailand

Are you no longer teaching?

If you are still in first 90 days...

As

@Tod ********

stated...

Go to Thai Immigration to apply for the 60 day COVID extension.

The last day to apply for it is March 30.

But please recognize it is difficult to regain your Non B teaching visa inside Thailand once you give it up.

So choose wisely.

- Thanks for your input. The proposed job and contract have not materialised, and the clock is ticking. So I have limited choices. I think others at the school are working on Covid extensions - it's cash in hand - I don't intend to do that, so..

good luck. Again...there is no guarantee you will be able to obtain a Non B for teaching inside Thailand.

@Richard *******

found that out months ago as he sought to get the correct non b for several ...to be...teachers at his school.
