Thanks
@Tod ********
and the other Admins for your invaluable advice. Funnily enough, I asked TVC for advice several times, but they just said "we don't do that".

Thank you for your answer, I really appreciate it. However my question is, as I now have a WP, can the 3 W30's in the VN passports be converted to Non O's in country. Thats the part I am getting differing answers for.

@Tod ********
we entered Thailand on a 30 day visa waiver, however we have changed to the W30 Covid extension. Mine is a UK passport, the family are on Vietnamese passports at present.

@Ellie ******
and
@Tod ********
, thank you for that, so it would seem my first order of business is to go over to OSOS and talk to them, cos I tried talking to them on LINE as you can see from the chat above, and they really were not very helpful.

@Benjamin *****
Thanks Ben, however they were my first stop and they were about as useful as the proverbial tits on a bull..

@Benjamin *****
indeed you are correct, except I am the employer in this particular case. I just got BOI approval and would rather not spend the exorbitant amounts being asked of me to get it done if at all possible.
Rob ********
Since by the time the new passports arrive, we will be in the 45 day new visa application window, would you recommend we just go and do the extensions as soon as the passports arrive?
Rob ********
@Tod ********
I will certainly report back with my results, hopefully it will help others.

These requirements are pretty much the same for the Covid extension.. which I will be doing on the 20th July. (Ours expires on the 28th July).

the kids have their own TM6 etc. Just stamped in on their mum's passport.

I didn't know about those tidbits regarding kids 15 and 18 and under.

Thank you mate, you are a wealth of information.
