Hey all,

ive just finished the application for STV on the online Thai visa website. I thought that the next step would be to post my passport to the London embassy with a barcode to print off, which they provide after payment. however ive been greeted by the list below, and i'm a bit confused now.

can anyone whose applied for an STV through the London embassy shed some light on what they sent in the envelope, cheers

TLDR : Answer Summary
The original poster has completed their STV application online and is confused about the next steps involving document submission to the Thai embassy in London. They seek clarification on what specific documents need to be included in their envelope when sending their passport. Various comments address the requirements, such as needing original documents and proof of accommodation for the initial 90 days. There is also discussion regarding processing times and an IT error related to the application location.

I got an update, and I didn’t apply to France, I didn’t think I was that stupid haha. It was an IT error, which they have sorted, might be a heads up for those who apply for the STV online.

Danny Dee it says give 7 days from posting, but since they recommend first class postage, id say you'll probably get it back within 4-5 days, sent mine off today so I imagine ill have it back by tues/weds next week

How long are you trying to stay? They are issuing 45 day visa for exempt countries

I don’t trust the visa excempt as people are using it in the hope of staying longer under the constant amnestys. Bit risky in my opinion, as I imagine youd need a good reason to stay in the country after 45 days, and I plan to stay for 6 months.

yeah if you plan on staying that long best get a visa before you go.

also confused about this page, as I have provided the documents ( requested in the image) already in my online application, so its a bit pointless asking for them again.

gone over my application and there is nowhere that states I have applied for the French embassy

and if you are using a French address then your visa will take a fair while as you have to go through Paris.

You appear to be a British national currently in France and you are applying to the Paris embassy

Is that the London RTE or a French one?

Note verbale is your proof of accommodation for the first 90 days after quarantine. The rest you can work out yourself, I'm sure.
