How Long Does Mail Take Uk To Thailand?

[chaiyapoon]

After getting a refusal for VV,which it seems was entirely down to the girlfriends lack of knowledge/confidence in a short telephone interview.I want to try again,(I have done my best to overcome this) so will have to send out a new sponsor letter and a few other pages which they kept.I was in Thailand when she handed it in,but have returned to UK now.How long would a letter take UK to Thailand and whats the best method.

I find the mail to be like a lottery. Sometimes only one week other times a month and occasionally never. I live upcountry though, maybe in Bangkok it is more reliable.

Coming this way is quicker than the other way round, if its a letter/document id say go with first class recorded, dont bother with the couriers unless its v urgent, id say a week tops to arrive here,.

Now of course it will also depend how the current UK postal stike is going.

I tend to send packages to Thailand by Royal Mail International Signed For. I've never had one go astray and they have taken between 4 and 10 days. During the postal strike, I've been sending stuff via DHL which is considerably more expensive.

If it's only the sponsorship letter you are sending, why not scan and e-mail it? The marginal cost is zero and delivery almost instantaneous.

I regulary send post to my girl, she lives in Phetchabun, approx 4 hours north of Bkk.

Takes usualy around 5 days, week at tops.

I send 1st class, international signed for, if thats any help.

On a side note, i received a letter sent by DHL from Saudi Arabia. But it arrived at my house in an EMS envelope. I guess parts of issan are just too insignificant for DHL to bother with and they just place the letter into another envelope and give it to the post office. Anyone else experienced this?

Scan it and let her print it at her end, most people have a standard sponsors letter just re date it. And send a covering letter as to the ECO concerns.
