Is it possible to switch directly from Education visa to a teaching visa? The employer is recommending cancelling the ED visa first then apply for a COVID visa then change over to a teaching visa. But she also said that for the covid visa, the stamp given is usually 15 days first then after 15 days, need to go back to the immigration and see if they will stamp the additional 45 days. My other question is, does the immigration usually approve the additional 45 days?

Guys.. I assume you get these questions a lot. My fiance and son is on a (first time) visa exempt here in Hat yai and it has been extended already at immigration. So now its the border/visa run for them.. I do want to confirm the latest immigration laws though, as it changes often and people tell different stories.

Can they go down through Sungai Kolok to Kota Baru, stay 2 nights and re enter Thailand and get another 30 days at border? Or will they need to apply and obtain a visa at the consulate in Kota Baru?
