Advice On How To Get A 12 Month Visa

[Ottuk]

Thanks in advance for your help , this is my first post .....

I am from the uk and intend to go back to Thailand as soon as possible . I have applied and should have soon , the yellow book . I am also married to a Thai lady .

Can I get a 12 month visa from the uk or do I wait untill I am in Thailand and then when I am there how do I get another 12 months .

Also can I just get a one way ticket or do I need to buy a return which I won't use .. I hope .

Thanks again

In the UK, apply at an honorary Thai consulate, eg Hull, for a multiple-entry non-O visa. Application can be made by mail.

As long as you have the visa in hand a one way ticket will suffice.

Each entry is 90 days. Do your last exit/entry just before it expires and you will get another 90 days, stretching it out to 15 months.

I think your other questions have been answered. Get a 90 day non-o visa in UK then apply here for 1 year extension.

Page 8 7.17 gives requirements for 1 year extension of above visa you apply for at immigration here.

Rumors are spreading around if Thaksin get his asylum in UK then Thailand will strict their rules to issue some kids of visa that will make it more complicated to get like NON-O multiple etc.

I am Swedish citizen and dont know so much about to apply for visa in other countries but I know that several embassies and consulates in Europe have their own rules on whats required to get like NON-O m visas.

Is Hull very much easier of non-Imm-O-multi applications?

I will be living within walking distance of the Birmingham Consulate when my time to apply comes, are they as easy to deal with? Their website is certainly less informative.
