March 8, 20224 yr A friend of mine has been told he will be losing his job within about 10 days. He arrived in Thailand visa on arrival, and has been on a Non-immigrant "B" visa for almost a year. He is searching for a new job, though without success so far. Is there any way he can get an extension to remain in Thailand, without leaving the country ? Sixty to 90 days would probably be enough for him to find a new job. He is unmarried and too young for a Retirement Extension. Thank you.
March 8, 20224 yr Does he currently have a Visa or an extension of stay? If a Visa he can stay. If an extension it will end on the day his job ends. He will be given 7 days to leave. I cannot think of any other legal option to stay without leaving the the country and returning with a Visa or a Vise Exmpt Entry.
March 8, 20224 yr There is no short stay extension he can apply for. If his employer agreed to allow him to keep his extension valid for a short period of time he could stay that way. That would also mean delaying his work permit cancelation.
