Is there a good company or person around that would help me convert my non-Visa tourist entry into a possible retirement Visa while I’m here? Currently my Visa runs out on May 19 but I probably could extend for another 30 days.

Cheers

Hello, I’m currently volunteering and have recently been offered a teaching position. My school is very supportive, but I’m curious about visa matters. Has anyone here successfully switched from a Non-O visa to a Non-B visa within Thailand? I’m under the impression that in-country visa conversions might be mostly available for tourists on visa exemptions or tourist visas. I’m eager to know if it’s possible to complete the process without leaving the country. Any insights or experiences would be greatly appreciated!

Hello quick question about the 90 day report. Came in on a 60 day exemption, just converted to a 90 day non o visa at chaeng wattana on Friday. Entered Thailand about 85 days ago. From my past experiences they do the 90 days along with the issuing of the visa, but last Friday was the earthquake day. Not sure if I still need to do it or only need to start doing the 90 day report 90 days after the first visa is issued.

Hi, is it true that dtv visa cannot be cancelled. I asked at the immigration and the immigration officers said it cannot be cancelled. Does anyone know or experienced about the dtv visa cancellation?

What is the process to convert DTV to open my own business/visa work permit etc?

Can you stay within Thailand for the entire process or does this visa need to be cancelled by exiting first and then re-entering on a tourist visa and converting to business from there?

Any info on cancelling this visa would be appreciated as with my timeline it may make more sense to just issue a tourist visa and not go DTV route after all. I was thinking to take DTV to buy more time but now I’m not sure… thank you!

I currently hold an ED plus Visa, and my husband and baby currently have Non-O Visas (as dependents on my visa). According to the new rules, my ED plus Visa can be converted to another visa within Thailand.

My question is:

If I get a Non-B Visa, can my husband and baby do an in-country conversion from one Non-O to another Non-O (linked to my Non-B), or will they have to leave Thailand?

If conversion is not possible within country can they come on tourist visa and then convert to new non-o

Quick question. I was last stamped into Thailand on Visa Exempt on December 4th. I have just had that stamp converted in NON-B which wxpires on May 25th. I'm wondering if I am required to do a 90 day report now? Thanks

May be a shot in the dark but does anyone have the info needed from Samut Prakan Immigration office to convert an exemption stamp to a non-o spousal 90 day visa? I understand all Immigration offices are different. So I would like the one specific to Samut Prakan.

I need some advice on what to look out for when getting a job offer while holding tourist visa.

1. Does converting tourist visa to work visa require us to leave the country?

2. Is it possible to begin work while waiting for the visa to progress? (I believed it’s illegal to do so, but any advices are appreciated) Thank you.
