Can my partner apply for a 60-day tourist visa from Hanoi if their non-O visa is not approved?
We are waiting on my OH’s non-o visa to be approved (mine is already approved). We are flying into Thailand from Hanoi on 1st December so there’s still time BUT we are leaving the UK to get there in a few days time with all our accommodations and flights booked.
If by chance the non-O visa is not given, can OH apply for a standard 60 day tourist visa with his European passport from Hanoi?

Be careful about leaving the UK before you have received a confirmed decision from the UK Thai Embassy. As you are required to be in the UK until the Thai Visa decision is known. I am assuming that the OH is your legally Married spouse.

I was asking if he could apply for a 60 day tourist visa from Hanoi (while we are on holiday there and before we fly to Thailand). This is in the the scenario that for some reason he’s not given the non-o - as in they say no. So in that case he’d just be applying for one visa with nothing outstanding.James ********
@Lorraine ****
he's to stay in the UK until the decision is known about his application for the Non O Visa.It's not let's fly to Vietnam while his application for the Non O Visa is still pending approval in the UK

believe the OP was asking a specific question about applying for a 60 day tourist visa with European Passport from Hanoi. Any advice for her on that? 🙄Vin *******
Damo Fernandez no, they weren't.
They specifically stated Non-O.

problem is that you cannot have two Thai Visa applications under consideration at the same time.

Damo Fernandez you can't apply for more than one visa at a time. You'd have to cancel the Non-O to apply for an SETV or any other visa. Best bet is to wait. If it doesn't arrive you can enter on a visa exempt. You can always leave and enter on the Non-O later.

that’s right re OH. Yes I’m aware of the need to be in the Uk although the embassy know we will be entering Thailand from Vietnam and not the UK. My visa was approved already on this basis.James ********
@Lorraine ****
your visa has been approved... But your OH is still pending approval. Each Thai Visa approval is based on its merit, not yours.Activity
