Hi,

My wife would like to accompany me to the UK to visit my mother in hospital. She will be about 29 weeks pregnent flying to England and 32 weeks whem returning to Thailand. Will this lead to difficulties getting a familily visit visa? We live together in Thailand and my wife has visited the UK twice in the past.

thanks in advance for any advice.

The pregnancy should be of no issue issue in obtaining a visa.

Here is a copy of BA's take on flying whist pregnant all airlines have similar rules.

"For uncomplicated single pregnancies, we restrict travel beyond the end of the 36th week, and for twins, triplets etc., beyond the end of the 32nd week. After your pregnancy has entered its 28th week, we ask that you carry with you a letter from your doctor or midwife, stating the pregnancy is uncomplicated and confirming the expected date of delivery. In this letter, your doctor should state that you are in good health, that they are happy for you to fly, and that (in their opinion) there is no reason why you cannot fly."

You should make it clear in the application that you are aware she will not be able to have the baby in an NHS hospital whilst in the UK as a visitor and that she will leave the UK whilst she is still able to fly.
