Good morning learned friends, I am hoping to draw on some of your experience and knowledge please...

I'm a UK citizen/passport holder and have just returned from Thailand having stayed just under 3 months on the 2 month Visa exemption plus 1 month extension. All good, no issues.

So, I'm currently back in the UK and beginning the online process to apply for the new DTV. I have a couple of questions I can't seem to find answers for.

If I submit the application online as required (plus all the correct documentation, of course)... while I'm waiting for the approval email (fingers crossed) can I fly to Spain, and then enter Thailand directly from there once I have that approval?

Similar to above question... Could I fly to Thailand on another visa exemption, then return to the UK (or somewhere else?) before re-entering on the DTV approval email?

(I know that some visa applications require that you stay in the country from which you are applying until completed; USA springs to mind re the green card. Or at least that used to be the case)

Hopefully, some legal mind or experienced UK DTV holder can shed some light on this issue for me. Thanks in advance for any insights.

Hi everyone,

What supporting documents should I upload Thai embassy E-Visa? I live in the uk.

I have my passport uploaded and a photo of me but it’s asking for booking confirmation - I have attached a screenshot of my stay length and hotel as you can only submit one document per answer?

Also it’s asking for proof of location - I have used my driving license with my address on it?

In addition it’s asking for my flights - which I have used a screen shot of my plane tickets with names and flight number.

Lastly with the length of stay I have put 179 days as I’m applying for a multi entry tourist visa?

I know it’s only 60 days at a time though so should I put 60 days on the application?

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hi All

Applying for Tourist visa. 60 days for January 3.

I am UK citizen

I am in the UK at the moment and applying using the E visa online system.

I Started process last week,saved and carrying on today as waited for paperwork.

Last week I had to upload 8 items now it has changed to 5 items

The 5 Items are:

Bio Data Page - Passport size photo - Document Indicating Current Location

- Flight ticket - Accommodation.

Does anyone know what to upload for Document Indicating Current Location.

I am guessing this could be Passport Bio Data Page or Proof of address.

Anyone experienced this change or Any Ideas please ?

PLEASE DO NOT mention arriving without visa and obtaining 30 days and then extend as this will not be possible.

Thanks

Just for information. We applied last Sunday evening for an METV.( UK). It was pending all week and I have been checking so that I can add in the second flight within 60 days. We've just received notification that we have our METV and we didn't have to show anything else. Very happy with the outcome. Can't wait to arrive, very soon. Brilliant service.🎉

Thank you for letting me join the group.

My family are going to Thailand in July for 33 days and I am trying to apply for a 60 day tourist visa.

I am just not sure on a few things when filling in the support document part and I hope some of you can enlighten me.

1. Part 6 asks for proof of accommodation in Thailand. My wife is Thai and we have an apartment in Bangkok. So can I use a copy of our property registration certificate for this?

2. Part 8 asks for a residence permit in the country in which the application is submitted. Myself and my two children were born in the UK and are British and don't need residence permits.

a.Can I use a photo of my driving licence for myself?

b.Can I use a photo of my children's medical cards that have their address on them, as they are only 11 and 12 years old?

3. Part 10 asks to upload passport pages which contain all travel records for the past 12 months since last International trip.

We haven't been outside the UK in the past 5 years. So what do I upload here?

4. Part 11 Applicant is required to upload a document that can verify their current residency.

a. Can I again used my driving license?

b. What can I use for my children?

Sorry for so many questions and thanks in advance
