Married isn't a requirement.

But they do scrutinize " reason to return" for a Thai partner.

I did a visa for my gf ... 4 Thai girl I've taken to uk.

The emphasis was mainly on her , what does she hav to go home to , why does she want or need to return for.

URS is can U support her , so banking for U... kids , house , job , business to run etc for her.

My gf got a 6 month visa , hated the UK and we were home here after a week.

We paid an agent 30k as I couldn't be bothered with the docs.

30k visa , 50k flight x 2 and accom and car hire plus food , well over 300,000b for a week in the UK 😂 .

But worth it as she now never wants to go back , suits me.

ok I'm not that much up on this but the way I was told U do it and the way I did do it 4 years ago.

U can't get the bkk bank acc or retirement visa outside the country so ...

I was told to book a 30 day trip and before the 30 days run out I would have to sort out a bkk bank acc and a retirement visa all of which I did.

So I bought a one way to Thailand and a one way Cambodia ( 4000b at the time )

I knew I wasn't going to Cambodia so I didn't care what their laws were and all Thailand wanted was a flight out in 30 days so I just threw the flight away once I got my visa

@Kev ********
yes U just apply.

I do a single entry / exit to see my kids in UK yearly.
Darren ******
Because U have to leave within one year so why not have a flight ready on Ur initial visa app.
