Need Help In Changing My Visa Status

[yeasin17]

Hi All,

I am a student at ABAC. And I just joined a company to work for. The company has already given my the work permit. But my visa status is Non-Immigrant with 'ED' category. Now, I was being informed that the company cannot extend the visa if the category is ED. They have suggested me to go out of Thailand and get a new Non-immigrant visa with 'B' category. But this is something very much troublesome.

Can I change the Category of my visa from Non-Immigrant Ed to Non-immigrant B type without leaving Thailand?

Or the can the company can still extend my visa even though it is a Non-immigrant ED category?

Any help regarding this will be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Yeasin.

If you are continuing to be a student, then no need to do anything. Just extend your Non Ed again, when it is going to expire based on being a student, and your work permit will be renewed for that time period.

If you are going to no longer be a student and now what to apply for a extension of stay based on business. You do not need to leave Thailand and are able to apply for the extension based on business. The visa itself does not need to be changed to do the extension based on business. As long as it is a non immigrant visa, you are able to do any type of extension.
