I have had documents sent from UK just normal airmail, got birth certificate and pension stuff takes between 5-8 days all the mail was addressed in english( all this in the last 2 months), i live in Bangkok and never had mail go missing, it seems the more rural you go, the more sporadic the delivery. If i have to send important stuff then i use DHL

Just a thought, has the poster accessed their bank account in the last 2 years, i seem to remember on this forum, people stating that their bank accounts were closed to to inactivity after a year., it has been nearly 2 1/2 years since they were here. hopefully not the case here

I hold my breath, and wondering why you repeat yourself over and over with pure misinformation!
I guess he guaranteed for her stay by signing the guarantee form? If so, I rest my case!
There is NO guarantee form, there is no legal guarantee enforceable by law, Post your source that shows the poster is liable

Her legal reason to visit Uk is terminated, and it is your duty to inform UKVI, if not you can be held responsible.
Good luck
Not true, he has no responsibility at all . show your source for this statement

You are legally and financially liable if she enters the UK using the visa and breaks any rules or regulations like working or over staying. Nice she has a new bf who can get her a visa. Forget your investment and protect yourself and your mother. Lots of Thai girls dating online in London. Most arrive with someone.
Simply wrong, he has no legal liability, whatsoever under law

Sorry to hear this, not sure how you applied as couple, she would have applied, with your support, but the visa will be in her name.
she has a valid visit visa so she will be able to travel, however she may be questioned at immigration on arrival, and if her answers dont match the application answers she gave on her application(immigration can see this info) eg were you travelling with ukjase? where is he? then immigration may phone you if the are suspicious. then she can be denied entry.
You can not and you will not be held responsible for her actions. you are not the first relax
it is up to you if you want to report her to immigration, not sure that they do anything, they might put something on computer, the mysteries of the home office, just google report immigration offence

Is there anything apart from my marriage certificate i need to bring Thailand with us.
The Thai Embassy London is a no no.
Your UK marriage certificate will not be accepted by the Thai authorities, unless you have it legalized by the Thai embassy in London then have it translated and presented to the MFA in Bangkok, only then you can register it at an amphur, only then will immigration accept it for any marriage extension of stay.
Nothing any agency can do unless they use false documents, then you will be in a world of pain

If you married in the UK have you had your marriage legalized by the Thai embassy in London you need that done before you come here, once here you need things translated then signed off by MFA, that is if you want to stay in Thailand using the marriage route
Finnair have on their website that anyone travelling on tourist visa this will include visa exempt, must have a return ticket, though a ticket leaving Thailand would be good enough
Please be advised that as a leisure traveller, you must have a return or an onward ticket to another country before departure. Check our 'Travel requirements map' for details.

I have read about this visa but I am not clear about the qualifications and what you get in return.
What I read is:
1/ you need to have a yearly income of 80,000 USD/ year
2/ you need to have health insurance with minimum coverage of 50,000USD/ uear
3/ you need to 100,000USD minimum assets or in a bank account.
Is that correct?
That will give you a 10 years visa? What else? Can you work with this visa? Is it a 10 years visa but renewable every year?
Is there a minimum age to qualify?
I am 54 years old. Not married. My yearly income is above 80,000USD/ year (working contract but not in Thailand. My health insurance coverage is about 150,000USD/year.
Even if i own property in Thailand, they are not under my name but my son name.
Does it make me qualify?
The 10 year visa they are talking about, does not exist, they are still talking about it(and have been for years), and the 80 000usd is from a pension not working. the only 10 year visa available is the 0-X, the other options are O-A or non O based on retirement, not sure if you can get a visa based on Thai child as they are 23, but worth looking at or there is the Thai elite https://www.thailandelite.com/

Just a thought if you are a visitor then no issues, but if you have a work permit you need to have your passport stamped before you leave the immigration area (using the e gates shows you entering as a visitor), might seem petty but can be an issue years later when applying for ILR etc and needing to prove you were working(another forum has an Australian in this situation

Is this land owned by a family/extended family member?. and is this just passing the land to another family member for a fee (your girlfriend?) . if you are going to be paying at some point yes you smell a rat. of course if your girlfriend has a decent job and can quite easily afford the money no issues,

This is only a small part of the retirement visa they are talking about, this has been in the pipeline for years and every 6 months or so yet another little change is proposed, the fact is nothing is final yet, and they forgot to mention that not only to you need to meet the monthly/yearly pension, you also need to hold property or 250 000 in thai stocks, no mention how much your property has to be worth , the medical insurance has not been worked out, can you you a foreign policy and will it meet the wording of the visa or will you end up having to use a thai policy, the only thing that seemed any use was the proposal that you would not need to do 90 day reports, i doubt this visa will ever see the light of day, expect another revision in 6 months, and to cap it all it is only for 10 years. who in their right mind would invest in a property that you visa is only 10 years in length, and based on previous form ie 0-A visa what will they change during those 10 years?

Just go direct to the airline websites and book direct easy to get booked seat/meal plus travel points and if any issues go direct to the airline, saves having to deal with 3rd party travel agencies who may have slightly cheaper tickets but can have many restrictions refunding/baggage weight etc.

On the evisa site was there not an email to contact with any issues, like www. xxxxxLON4. co .th or Lon5 , i had an issue a while ago, and the email addresses for help were not the ones on the embassy website.

Just an update lloyds bank will do checks and told to take my passport in to the nearest branch to check.
Looks like a trip to the uk in the future.
I expect the checks will be to see if you are resident in UK, if those checks can not find you then the bank will also want a recent utility/council tax bill. as proof of resident status
