Important Information about Non-Immigrant Visas

With the introduction of new rules for Non-Immigrant visas, The Royal Thai Consul UK is now providing direct assistance for all categories of Non-Immigrant visa applications.

Under the new legislation, when applying for any category of Non-Immigrant visa, the Royal Thai Consul asks applicants to email all documentation for checking to the Hull Consulate, (enquiries@thaiconsul-uk.com) who will then forward the application to the London Embassy for approval to issue.

The applicant is then informed of the decision by the London Embassy and, where approved, is invited to visit the Hull Consulate where the visa can be issued promptly. This application checking service is not available at the London Embassy, where persons posting their application to London will only learn if they will be granted multiple or single entry or even only a tourist visa on receiving their passport again.
