UK Tourist Visa for Thai


UK Visa from Thailand

Bringing your Thai girlfriend to the UK for a holiday to meet your family and friends is without a doubt a romantic prospect. However, even before imagining your excited girlfriend stepping into the plane bound for Birmingham, you need to be aware of the immigration hurdle which you and her need to overcome to successfully obtain a visitor visa to the UK. Good information is your key to obtaining a UK visitor visa for your Thai girlfriend with flying colors.

Among the most important considerations which you need to keep in mind when applying a UK visitor visa for your Thai girlfriend are the circumstances of your girlfriend in Thailand and your relationship with each other. Your girlfriend will have a better chance obtaining the visa if she has a decent and stable job in Thailand. This is regardless of her income as long as the job doesn’t involve prostitution, drugs or other illegal means of livelihood. Aside from having a good job, it would also help if she has assets and properties in Thailand, savings account and dependents in Thailand. Assets can be in the form of cars, buildings or a piece of land. Her parents and children are considered dependents. These are her ties to Thailand which are the reasons she’s coming back after her allowed duration of visit in the UK.

Should your girlfriend fail to meet the above points as she relies on UK visitor visa sponsorship, it’s a prerequisite to clearly establish your on-going genuine relationship. You can do this by providing as much pieces of evidence you can to show your relationship. These include photos together, email exchanges, chat transcripts, money transfer receipts, boarding pass among others. The longer you have known each other, the more convincing your relationship would appear.

Aside from that you need to write a letter detailing how did your relationship start and the highlights of your relationship. As the UK visit visa sponsor, you need to prove your financial capacity to support your girlfriend once she gets to the UK. In this case you would need to provide bank statements; at least 3 pay slips, House Title deed or Mortgage Agreement and photos of your house. This is apart from the sponsorship letter which confirms your desire to sponsor her stay in the UK.

Once everything is prepared, the visa application is submitted to VFS. It would take them 2 or 3 working days to process the visa application. If interview is required, the processing time would expectedly take longer. Your girlfriend is allowed to stay in the UK for 6 months if she gets the visa.

Doing the visa application by yourself is definitely an option if you wish to save some money. However, going over the visa application and ensuring the thorough preparation of the required papers are no easy task to do. In this regard it remains best to enlist the service of UK visa specialists to guide you with the visa application process.

Remember that it’s easier doing a new visa application than remedying a refused UK visitor visa application. So when you do the visa application the first time, it’s just prudent to give your best shot. Consulting with UK visa professionals is always advised.
