I did it on January 31st. There is a requirement coming in from the U.K. where you have to document why you are leaving there.

I flew direct with Thai airways as didn’t want to risk any potential issues with any transit with certain airports etc.

If you are going to do it I suggest you do it quickly before the new system comes in the U.K. but of course you need to go through the process of having your visa and Coe and insurance and asq hotel all lined up before anything don’t forget the covid test and fit to fly certificate also

type pr Thai government in Facebook

They have an English language briefing every day. It was this week I can’t remember what day but I’m sure it wasn’t Monday so look for Tuesday on

That is correct however according to the Thai government briefing this week they are now saying everyone coming from the U.K. needs one so I would check with the embassy first, or you would get refused in the airport

Yes just a letter from her confirming you’re staying there for the full period of say 90 days plus a copy of the lease is absolutely fine

And that’s if they tried to stop you which they won’t

@James ******

ah ok sorry. Don’t worry it’s just a visa and the U.K. don’t check the visa only the Thai do. So just say you’re visiting ill family

@James ******

you can get whichever visa suits you best from the Thai embassy online at the moment

Yes tell them no issue whatsoever. And they can travel really the rules do say no international holidays but how they can tell if it’s a holiday or not

Get the visa done. Then you can get flight in a matter of minutes and the insurance and upload all together when you apply for the Coe. The Coe is straightforward if you’ve got everything else done youre sorted. Don’t forget your asq that may be the issue when you don’t have much time left so get onto that right away
