Converting from OA visa to an O visa
theoldgit replied to Mansell's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
This will be better in the Visa Forum. -
@Randy99you’ve posted your question in the wrong forum, I’ll move to the forum for visas for Thailand.

Actual fight tickets are not required, just indicative plans and reasons to return. Likewise when entering the UK Border, whilst some Border Force Officers may well ask to see one, because it’s an easy route, it isn’t a requirement. That said, they can ask the passenger to demonstrate that they have the means to leave the UK at the conclusion of their visit. The UKBA are more than aware that possession of a return ticket, doesn’t mean they intend to use it.

Following on from the previous helpful reply, US Citizens do not normally require a visa to travel to The Netherlands for a visit, but be aware that your passport must meet the validity requirements. https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/international-travel/International-Travel-Country-Information-Pages/Netherlands.html

You seem to have posted in the wrong forum, though it's not clear from your post where you are located, you say that you've been out of Thailand for a few years but are talking about a visa run when you ask which boarder [sic] checkpoints except [sic] the E-visa. I'll move your question to the Thai Visa Forum on the assumption that you're actually in Thailand, in the meantime maybe you could clarify what you actually want to know.

When you say your girlfriend wants to apply for a spouse visa, what is she actually wanting to do? Does she plan to marry you and settle in the UK, marry in Thailand and then settle in the UK or visit as a spouse/partner/spouse? As@soi3eddierightly points out, all the relevant information is on the UKVI Website, that will guide her through the various routes, dependant on what she actually wants to achieve. If she needs an agent to guide her through the process I would recomend Thai Visa Express in Pattaya, he is the only agent registered with UK's OISC (Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner) in Thailand, though registration isn't a legal requirement in Thailand, and anyone can set themselves up as an agent and have English speaking staff. Thai Visa Express is English owned, top advisors and English and Thai speaking staff.

Is your passport approaching renewal date?
theoldgit replied to Muhendis's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
We don’t really need another thread regarding this limited strike action, it’s already being discussed in the appropriate forum. This forum is for visas to other countries, I’ll close this thread. -
getting a tourist visa outside my contry
theoldgit replied to pierrenoel's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
Assuming you’re looking for a visa for Thailand, you don’t say, I’ll move your post to the Thai visa forum, maybe you could clarify what you’re actually asking. -
Google Translate for UK Visit Visa
theoldgit replied to MartinL's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
The UKVI requires that any supporting evidence that is not in English, or Welsh, must me translated into English by a qualified translator, who must stamp the translation with the details of their qualifications, I don’t think they’ll accept Google Translated copies. There are numerous translator's in Thailand, especially in big towns and Cities, some will accept scanned copies of the originals via email and will send the hard copy of the translation to you by EMS, as well as sending the scanned stamped translation via email, useful if your wife intends to upload her own supporting documents.- 1 reply

Let's try this in the correct forum -
Children with Thai Passports to UK
theoldgit replied to KannikaP's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
VFS haven’t refused anything as they have no say who will be granted a visa or not, decisions are made by UKVI staff, who in this case have made the right decision. As a number of posters have pointed out, the children are British Citizens and as such are not subject to Immigration control and cannot, or at least shouldn’t, be issued with a UK Visa. -
UK "Standard Visitor" visa for Thai Citizen

Yes, spot on -
UK "Standard Visitor" visa for Thai Citizen
theoldgit replied to Pi Sek's topic in Visas and migration to other countries
1 - Biometric details can only be captured at the Visa Application Centre. 2 - The premium services are, in my humble opinion, totally unnecessary, the standard system works just fine. 3 - Applications certainly seem to be getting turned around in about three weeks or so at the present time. If you’ve already scanned the supporting evidence, they can be uploaded directly to the UKVI website prior to the visit to the Application Centre, there is no service charge if you don’t need supplementary services. -
From the current Europecar website: If you are renting outside of the country your licence was issued in, if you driving licence is not written in the English language and /or the characters cannot be read in the renting country, an International driving licence is mandatory. Note that your International driving licence is only valid if accompanied by your normal driving licence.

Your daughter will have no problem entering the UK with a UK passport with limited validity, or even an expired one. The passport confirms she a British Citizen and as such is not subject to Immigration Controls, whilst her passport may be about to expire her citizenship isn’t.
