Thanks. I've also just read that uk application center from March 18th is now The shoppes at Belle Grand Rama 9 131/1,141/1 Unit BS003-BSOO3/1 1st Floor, Rama 9, Huay Kwang so a different address,,,,

In recent years, once my wife has submitted her online application, she always used to have to go to the Trendy Building in BKK to do biometrics etc and to hand in the original documents. Is that still the location used? TIA

Which strains did you try?

do you have the LINE ID please?, i cant seem to add fs high?

Is there a new facebook link for the khanom growers, the last link provided dosent work? thx pst

We live in, and will be applying from Thailand.

Thanks very much. As i mentioned in my original post, we are undecided where to go at present, but Spain and Italy do appeal along with Netherlands,

For Spain?

Thanks, so for Spain, I cannot act as a sponsor, even though my families name will be on all the bookings, but other Schengen countries I can?. Is there a definitive list of which countries accept sponsors?. Have any other posters experienced any non sponsor countries?

Thanks for all your helpful information. As I sponsor my families UK visa and have done for the past 10 years, I will try to include all the same financial information in the Schengen application. We will most definitely be only visiting one country due to time restrictions. Are there any Embassy's that are 'easier' to gain the visa from......?

A sponsor can show the funds, correct?

Thanks again for the replies. A previous poster mentioned having confirmed flights and accommodation, i presume they can be booked under a refundable/ cancellation policy incase visa is rejected?

What I meant was, we may only be going to one country, so if i applied at the Italian embassy and was approved, could i then enter another Schengen country first, or would it have to be Italy?

Thanks for the replies. So as I am the sponsor for my families UK trips, its similar paperwork that I need to provide for their Schengen application?. I'm thinking to get the UK visas in place first, then apply for Schengen straight after, so at least then they can see travel history for UK over past 10 years. Is the rule about having to enter the Country that you got the Schengen for first implemented, or could you say apply at the Itailan Embassy, but enter say Netherlands first?.

My Thai family have visited the uk on many occasions and we are travelling again in a few months. This time we are thinking of going to the Schengen area for a week also (not sure where yet). Would they need to have the usual uk visitor vis in place first before applying for Schengen, or is it totally seperate and can be done before or after the uk application? TIA
