Hi baz69er,

 Just done a SETV for 60 days and needed help from this forum.

I scanned passport put in to file on computer took my picture with phone once I had them on file I needed to compress

them before the on line application would accept them I think they need to be below 200kb I also made them JPEG I used an online compression app for this

then they were accepted.

    I followed Senior Players advice and also others it drove me nuts but with help you will get it done. Good Luck

Hi All,

      Sent passport to London Thursday 5/9/ 2019 received back Tuesday 10/9/2019 good turn around 

Included only 4 items requested in red.

Sent it tracked for £3 if anyone interested

   Success SETV for 60 day inside valid to the 8th December.

I wish to thank all who helped and hope it also helps anyone else in similar circumstance

 Friends I chatted with recently have done e-visas online for Kenya Tanzania and Canada and all received their e-visas

online without the need to send off their passports hopefully one day it will be the same for us.

Hi Senior Player

Just to recap what the application actually stated onscreen after Step 5 at the Submit application by post stage, they requested that these items be enclosed:

1) Original Passport

2) Photocopy of Passport bio-page

3) Photograph

4) Travel booking confirmation (eg, flight details)

5) Proof of accommodation (eg, Agoda booking confirmation)

6) Bank statement (eg, printout of a bank PDF statement or official bank letter)

7) Confirmation of legal residence (I just sent another copy of my bio-page with "I confirm that I am a British citizen" written below it and signed it)

No I have done exactly like Riojasue just the four items marked in red Ive missed the bit after stage 5 stating the 1-7 above

all those items are included in the online application so hopefully not needed in hard form as well.

We should have our answer by Thursday

Yesterday I posted off my application for 60 day SETV I have only enclosed the 4 items requested on e-appointment by post.

1/ the downloaded e-appointment with barcode and reference no

2/ Actual passport

3/ £10 note

4/return address with post code

the 2 I was stuck on 5 and 7

For 5 I have just put in our address in Thailand (wish I had thought of adding wife,s ID to that one we,ll see )

or Senior Players idea of booking a few days in hotel

For 7 I have put in copy of passport again

for the financial part just downloaded bank statement from my Kasikorn

I wish to thank every one for their  contribution as well as helping me may be of use to others

and as soon as I know from Thai embassy you will know.

Right all done have paid and received e-mail conformation

I asked a friend to help he having just done evisas to Kenya and Tanzania recently

so we were both quite surprised to find that after all that

you still have to send all documents by post for your Visa, ( as I have always done in the past )

My friends visas were sent to his email and he just printed them off.

Why not Thailand ?

My questions had been about 5 and 7

for 5 I put address of my home in Thailand

for 7 copy of passport again

Thanks Alsyapal  although I did not add copy of wife,s ID  to 5 online just our address

wish I had thought of adding ID

Thanks all for your help will plow on let you know the out come

Thanks Senior Player have downloaded your guide to peruse as I fill out application

  Thanks Senior Player,

       Just an  SETV 60day and a bit of clarity on 5 and 7

Riojasue says they asked embassy about 7 and told just passport again
