I used a visa service center in Pattaya for all the visas for my now wife. Very efficient, not too expensive, and took away a lot of anxiety for her and I. I think you can find them in most major cities.

I found using a Thai based agency very confusing. The information they require is far more than the Aussie based ones. I used 2 in Bkk and it drove me mad. Aussie one requires basic stuff but isn't so pedantic. Love their paperwork here🀣🀣

I've used Polaris Migration agents in Gold Coast many times mate. Inexpensive and very professional. They will guide you. You'll need to translate documents etc but they are the best I've seen.

Thanks mate do you know what I have to bring ???

@Torben ********
yes mate. I'll send a friend request so we can chat but the guy that owns it is Satnaam. He and his team have got a great success rate and have a checklist for needs. It can be exhausting without help. Most importantly immigration will want to be positive she is returning so ties to Thailand are crucial.

Polaris handle most of this but there are a couple of things she needs doing such as biometrics in Bkk

@Torben ********
you have to apply at the Australian consulate, which is close to the embassy. Access is limited to the embassy.

If you are European you can apply for 651 Evisitor visa online.

For an Aussie

You just need a valid passport

Book a flight

You get an exempt stamp when you arrive

No β€œ tourist visa β€œ to organise prior
