My wife's Thai-issued IDP expiting this year was a 3 year document so not new news

@Dočasně ***************

What is new apart from the introduction of the TDAC 1-May?

@Irene *****

You enter on a 60 day visa exempt stamp then go to your Immigration Office to purchase a 30 day extension of stay, at no time are you on a visa

@Ross *******

There are enough people posting the official link in groups like this that these scam sites should not be found

@Jack *****

some fields are optional i.e. don't need to be completed

@Elías *******

But there is no 60 day Visa on Arrival so the "idiot" should not have been giving advice on one

@Ally ***********

I got my wife's 10 year standard visitor visa in 2023 for £860. Approved with no issues exempt the wait was longer than expected due to the flood of Ukranian appliications being processed.

I found it easy to do myself by going through the online application and making careful note of every requirement in every section then putting together an application letter ensuring that every requirement was included and had references to attached appendices which contained the documentation which addressed the requirements.

Indeed, the OP needs to go there to get their list of requirements which can be office specific including the application time of 30 or 45 days

@Fra ****

Yes but a Tourist Visa is 60 days entry

Are you sure, is this from the RTE Paris website?
