Did Avis quote their T&C's?

Following a heart attack in Singapore I was recommended to see Dr. Thavorn Suthichaiyakul (Google translation) at the Bangkok Christian Hospital, he also has clinics at other hospitals.

More than satisfied with my ongoing care, he speaks very good English and is a nice guy.

I'll move this to banking.

Nonsese, off topic post removed.

I'll move this to the Covid-19 thread, where I think it's more appropriate.

As a matter of interest, which imported drug are you taking? 

@RequiemIt might be helful if you confirmed which country within the EU you're looking for advice on, as has been pointed out each Member State has their own rules for your scenario, which may or may not apply to you.

You seem to be posting from Lithuania.

Yes, she is able to visit, subject to satisfying the Border Force Officer that she’s still a genuine visitor, who will leave the UK at the conclusion of her visit, and certainly before the expiry of her visa.

She will need to take Covid tests before she flies and after arrival in the UK, complete a passenger location form and then isolate on her arrival.

She needs to avoid red list countries, like the UAE, enroute otherwise she’ll be refused entry.

I don’t know what the conditions are for returning to Laos, of even is she can, but the conditions for returning to Thailand are quite arduous and expensive.

Totally unnecessary troll post removed, along with a couple of measured responses.

@hotandstickyI'm glad to hear that your friends issue has been resolved, sadly an expensive mistake.

There are no notaries public in Thailand, some lawyers are given the authority to function as Notarial Services Attorney in the country.
In Thailand, it is the Lawyers Council of Thailand which regulates the practice of notarial services in the country, maybe contact them https://www.lawyerscouncil.or.th/2019/ and ascertain if there are any lawyers authorised in your area (Phuket?).

I personally would try a bank first.

The French have announced vaccine help for their nationals living in Thailand. Will the British Embassy take a look again at their stance?

I don't think it's a stance by the British Embassy here in Thailand or indeed our Embassies worldwide, I'm pretty sure it's a policy of the UK Government.

Maybe some of the 100 million doses that Boris Johnson has pledged to donate worldwide will find their way here.

It has been mentioned here already that nantionality is not relevant.

 

That was by TonyM, who I believe knows his stuff. I know that you are very knowledgeable too.

 

Who is correct?

Yes, Tony M certainly knows his stuff, and whilst their childs nationality is not relevant, as a British subject, whilst he's a depenant he's not subject to Entry Clearance, so doesn't have to be part of the financial calculation and neither does he have to pay the NHS Surcharge.

The OP is also taking a dependant. Also wife is pregnant. Making 2 dependants.

 

I believe the £84000 is in reference to this.

The OP's wife is the applicant, their child is a British Citizen so not included in the calculation and neither is their unborn child.

I'll move this to the Covid-19 Forum

Nothing to do with visas, I'll move to General.

A couple of bickering posts removed.

As I stated the NHS is a residency based service.

You did indeed, in a later post.

I was responding to and clarifying your earlier post where you didn’t make that point clear.

I was concerned that a reader may not read all the posts in the thread and not get the full facts of their entitlements.

Travel insurance  not required.  Medical  insurance  is required or advisable

Medical insurance is not required but most certainly advisable, the same applies to travel insurance.

If she has a NI number then she is entitled to be registered with a doctor and receive free NHS care, assuming she also has an NHS number.

She’s only entitled to free NHS care in a hospital if she’s actually resident in the UK, NI number or not.

Many GP Practices require evidence that a prospective patient is legally resident in the UK before they are accepted onto their “list”.

I have an NHS number and am a UK tax taxpayer, but as I’m no longer resident in the UK, I’m not entitled to free healthcare, in a hospital apart from emergency treatment and treatment for a few very specific conditions.

NHS Trusts are required by law to check the eligibility of prospective patients, whether they do or not is another matter.

If they want to provide a reliable service I'm sure they can figure out an efficient way to do it.

 

"IF"

There are well over six hundred constituencies in the UK and many more councils, for any Embassy in the world to act as a postal service to receive and return votes from possibly all of these would be a logistical, and unnecessary nighmare within the timeframe prescribed by law.

Like member @Eff1n2retsays, the proxy system works pretty well.

I'll move this to banking, you might get a better response.

How much are you wanting to repatriate to the UK, I'm assuming that you are aware that you cannot use Wise to send funds out of Thailand?

Your best options are the K+ App or Dee Money.
