Hi

My Mrs has a 10 year visit visa to the UK issues in a Middle Eastern country about 3 years ago. Her passort is up for renewal and I guess she needs to trabsfer the visa to her new passport. We are now back in Thailand.

Problem is I have called the visa agency number supllied by the embassy and there is no info on the procedure, nor can I find anything on line and have had no response to emails.

Anyone experienced this? Or can provide some info?

Much appreciated

The visa is still valid, even if the passport it is in is now expired.

The simplest and cheapest solution would be to carry both old and new passports when she is travelling to the UK.

That is certainly the case.

However, if you do want to bother, the info isn't that hard to find. The Entry Clearance Guidance gives instructions on this page: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/ecg/ecbasics/...wpassp#15807391

and if you can find the page of visa application forms and scroll down through all the "Non-points system" forms you will see there is one for Transfer of conditions.

The fee is less obvious, but in the list of fees there is one designated "Vignette transfer" - 4350Baht, which is probably right.
