@Robert ******
I have no problem with my visa as I can renew it easily over here. I am commenting on all and I mean 100% of my friends that come over for up to 6months have great difficulty in obtaining a visa with this online system, a lot have giving up trying and are coming on a 30 day stamp, then 30day extension and then going to Vietnam for a change. This online system is a disaster imo.

Savanaket accepts a marriage certificate in English if married to a Thai national.

The answer your question is Yes, everybody in the UK says the same, your best bet would have been to go to the consulate at Hull, is it still to late?

@Tom ******
you will have to have a flight booked out then, that's what they told my friend anyway.

A friend of mine went to Hull consulate for the 60 day tourist visa as he has done for 20years +and was totally unprepared for the conditions required now, so he walked away. He will now come on a 30day exempt stamp and then extend for another 30 day stay. So if you only need to stay 60days that is the best option.

Not the best place to get a tourist visa, you will need bank statement of 6000 quid at least,hotel booking ,and flight out. Go elsewhere is my advice.

Never been asked in 27years of coming through immigration, but times are a changing.

This is Just what I expected, I certainly won't be applying for any visa for Thailand in the UK, if I decide to come back to Thailand it will be on a 30 day exempt stamp. Sad really as I have a house,car moto bike etc, up for sale now. Time to move on I'm afraid.

Not the best border to enter Cambodia as they will ask for 1500 bht or $40 for the $30 visa + the 20bht health check scam, good job you intend to stay a few days there as you would also be asked by the Cambodian immigration for another 300+bht for a in- out turn around. Don't worry about being asked if you have 20,000 bht on you when you return as they never ask , Thai immigration are friendly at this border, speaking from 12 years of experience there.
