Hi all .. I have a friend he holds the American nationality and he wants to come to Thailand and open a company, where we can find the requirements that he needs to establish the company and can he put non Thailand citizens in the company and make for them a work permit visa as employees?

I entered on a visa exemption. That has now expired, but I am here on visa amnesty until July 31. My question is: can I transfer my visa exemption/visa amnesty into a non-B in country? Or, can I transfer it to a tourist visa (in country), which can then be transferred to a non-B?

I don’t think a visa run is a valid possibility at the moment, but correct me if I’m wrong. I have been offered and accepted a job with a school here. Also if it matters, I am of American nationality. Thanks.
