Non Immigrant O to Non Immigrant B

Featured Replies

Currently have an extension for a non Immigrant O based on marriage to a Thai. Work in Thailand and have had a work permit for 4 years. Visa extension expires July 30th 2024. Is it possible and is there any benefit in converting to a non immigrant B? If so, what are the steps involved? My work permit is valid till December 2024. Thanks for any advice. (As a side note I will get a renewal passport in April and my current pp expires in November 2024.) Australian.

Thanks, why is that?

I think also that there is no benefit to change your NON-O (marry) to NON-B
Maybe i am totally wrong
I am married and have now a 60 day extension based on visit my wife
My wife and i have a company here in Thailand,however i not "work",i am just a share holder
On my research to change my visa into NON B,i not see benefits
With my NON-O visa (single entree) i can stay every time 90 days + 60 day extension
With a NON-B i can get 30-90-1 or 2 year workpermit but i have to leave each 90 days
Maybe i am totally wrong about this and other members can tell what option better is.
 

I'd personally stay on the non-O, unless you don't have 400K in the bank.

When you work with a Non - O marriage visa, you are in control of your Visa. if your employment is terminated for whatever reason, your visa is safe.

I changed a B-Visa to Non 0 marriage in 2008, without leaving the country.
