Hi guys, do you know the process of converting a Non-Immigrant B visa to a Non-Immigrant O-A within Thailand?

I have been working in Thailand for many years under Non-B but now I am retiring I want to convert my visa to Non-Imm O-A when I stop working (1 year visa but preferably 5 years if possible).

Can I do that without having to leave and re-enter Thailand?
Has someone done that before?

 

Thanks!

You can only apply for one year extension of stay while in the country. A OA visa is only issued at a Thai embassy or official consulate in home country or country of legal residence.

You change your the reason for your extension of stay based upon working to retirement at immigration.

Why not change to O visa based on retirement instead of O-A?

He does not need to do that. He can apply for a extension of stay based upon retirement at immigration. See my previous post.

I have a Non-Imm B that's been extended 10 times for reason of retirement. 

Strange, I thought Non-Imm B is only for work permit.
