What is the best visa option for a Scottish man married to a Thai national planning to return to Thailand and apply for his wife's UK tourist visa?

I don’t have any experience of asking for a Thai to go to the uk ,but it’s not as easy as people are suggesting ,

The paperwork has to be super accurate and I personally do know Scottish people of high financial incomes who have been refused uk visas for their loved ones and its getting worse,

They were all genuine relationships .

They were all way above the minimum financial requirement ,in fact the families I know would have been in the top 5 % of UK earners .

The paperwork is down to interpretation by the officer reading it ,so be prepared to loose money on your application as all applications are non refundable and be prepared for your application to be rejected

But I wish you all the best and hope you do get accepted first time

She can get a visa in around a week after all paper work is submitted

Don't forget you will need to get a passport for your baby as well, if the baby is coming back too.

Getting a UK tourist visa for your wife will only take around 2 weeks. She will have to submit the application and supporting evidence in person at VFS in Bangkok.

You can get a year-long, multi-entry Non-O visa from the thai consulate in Savannakhet Lao with minimum paperwork and no proof of financials.

Going the 90 day Non-O and then a yearly extension based on marriage inside the country is more time consuming and requires a lot more paperwork PLUS proof of either 400K baht banked for 2 months or 40K baht a month in income by a letter from your consulate.

Because this is a visa group for thailand I dunno what's involved with taking a thai to another country sorry :/
