Hi all

UK citizen applied for a Non Immigrant O-A Visa online Saturday 

(hopefully correctly 🤞)I will be sending my passport and the bar coded information  the Thailand Embassy require by Special Delivery post tomorrow (Tuesday) as I couldn’t get to the Post Office today.

Can someone from the UK please guide me on the following what the process is 🙏

The bar coded paperwork?

Do I need to sign it?

The other area for a signature, do I need someone else to sign or leave blank?

What else do I need to place in the envelope?

Thanks in advance all 🙏🙏🙏🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭

I filled Non O single entry application in online 3 weeks ago. My process.

1, filled in the online application

2, Printed 'declaration form' and signed

3, Enclosed passport photo

4, Enclosed uk passport

5, Enclosed 6 months bank statements to prove the ability to support

6, letter of invite from Thai National

7, copy of flight booking

8, copy of QSA booking

9, marriage certificate

10, Covering letter why I needed to go to Thailand

11, Thai wife and I signed all copies including her Thai ID.

12, a return next day post envelope postage paid to return documents.

13, Health insurance for 1 year. Thailand only including C-19

I'm not saying you need all these but I wanted to cover myself. Got my passport back in 5 working days passed Non O single entry 1 year. They send you a letter stating you can now apply for the Certificate of Entry and what is needed. They were very helpful and fast for me. Good luck in your travels

Did you get the single entry or the multiple entry? You mentioned 1 year in your post but the single entry is only 90 days.

I've got until 27 April to arrive for it to be stamped for a year. I'm married to a Thai national and we have a 3 year old daughter. You can get both single and multi entry the problem is the borders are closed so I believe they are issuing single entry. Then go to your local immigration center for further updates. Good luck

thanks

I’m getting an O-A long Stay Visa (1 year and multiple entries) I’m assuming the same as you’ve listed ?

Thought you booked flight and ASQ after receiving your visa and applying for the COE ?

I had my flight from last February 2020. ASQ I also booked to go with the flight same time I applied for visa.

As I stated I went over the top with the documents but I'm that desperate to leave the UK permanently. Enclosed photo of RTE instructions what to do next hope it helps. Good luck

I did sign for applicant name but not for someone else. You need to print the application receipt (barcode one). I also put all support documents in the envelope (just in case) and You have to put the original passport.

Thanks for the prompt reply 👍

Okay on the signing part, both pages? Just for clarification?

When you say all supporting documents do you mean a copy of everything sent electronically with the application?

Thanks

on my receipt pages, there is only 2 blank for signature of an authorised and passport’s owner. I signed only on passport’s owner. Yep I printed everything as on STV, there is no place to attach for financial support and inviting letters. Therefore, I put all. I got my visa back yesterday (submitted on last Tuesday).
