Geez, what a pain! You already have to take a photo anyway. Pay 839b for another photo and prints, what a joke. Oh well,it is what it is I guess, thanks for the info.

We will be living in non sa at when I get aged pension, but for now she wants to visit me in Oz.

Hi Fatone

Have your gf done it before? Now you can easily apply for Visitor VISA by yourself as long as you provide all relevant documents they then it shouldn't be any problems at all. You will only pay for VISA Application fee if I can remember it was between 4,000 and 5,000 bath. You can contact VFS for more info, they are very helpful.


Have a look on this like below,

Hi Fatone,

Yes, definitely with the new regulations if this her first time she is required to go to VFS to scan her figure print after submitted application.

•You will need to send her a guarantee letter that you will take care of her expenses and accommodation etc for the duration of her stay.

•Also it would be great if she is currently working and she can provide her bank statement. This will definitely help with VISA approval and consideration of VISA granted.

Thanks BJS, great advice
