CAN I PAY SUMONE TO CHANGE MY VISA TYPE

More details please. Did you have a job and quit or got let go? Never had a job in Thailand? Visa expires when? Is it a multiple-entry non-immigrant "B" visa? Permission to stay expires when? You can go to any Thai embassy or consulate in the area and apply for a tourist visa, even a double-entry type which would allow you to remain in Thailand for up to six months with appropriate border run and extensions..You cannot get a new non-immigrant "B" visa in Thailand.

Indeed ^^^, plus how old are you, your nationality, are you married (to a Thai)? There are a number of ways forward, but we need more information regarding your current position.

Also PLEASE don't type all in capitals, apart from being difficult to read it's considered as shouting and is poor netiquette.

CAN I CHANGE MY VISA TYPE

i don't know but u could change your type type to non caps

Change visa type for what purpose? A visa only allows you to enter Thailand, you are already here. Details, more details please.

If you have a business class multi entry "B" visa , you must renew at place of origin, you can go for a tourist visa in Thailand, but you entered on a business "B" so make up your mind, are you here for business , start a business , or just agood time , either way it will cost you money in the end, remember you cannot do business on a tourist visa, if you've got a business "B" you must have had a reference from someone in Thailand either employer or Thai business partner.
