Will I receive an email confirming receipt of my submitted documents for a non O visa application in the UK?

Barney ***************

@Heidi *******

you could be right as a friend of mine applied on 9th December with flight booked on 23rd December ! He got his visa 10 days later on the 19th ! Just concerned in case there's an issue and I have to go back to the start of the queue. Good luck with yours 🤞🙏

@Heidi *******

I applied on 23rd November and nothing yet. Status is "pending approval" and we fly on 14th January so I am getting a bit concerned now ! No response from them on email or phone ! Eeek ... that's 21 working days so far !

Bank transfer is slower with a poorer exchange rate and so you would get significantly less money in your account and have to wait longer for it too. I'm just not sure if Wise is marking funds as International transfer currently which you need to show in your Thai account for visa purposes.

@Buintje *****

very helpful. Thanks for stating the obvious. I just wanted to know if the TM 30 had to be printed out.

Barney ***************

So does the TM 30 need to be printed out ? What if I don't have access to a printer ?

Do I need a return flight ticket when entering Thailand with a Non-Immigration ‘O’ Visa?

Barney ***************

You can buy a temporary verifiable onward ticket online for just a few pounds / dollars at Best Onward Ticket (others are available) for your own peace of mind. It's valid for a couple of days and then gets cancelled automatically. It's a real ticket with a PNR number which can be checked by airlines, immigration etc.
