Hello ellabbs

Poigniant post - I am in the process of doing the exact same - gawd hope it's not for the same lady!!!!!!!!

Sorry I cannot offer you a pre-drafted version, as I too am a virgin when it comes to these, but I was only today at my immigration office and talking to one of my colleagues (I work with them, not for them, so sort of have an added edge on the inside stuff, as it were - but still have to go through all the proper channels, so please dont think I am suggesting that) and they- well she actually, a very nice girl/lady by the name of Monica, advised that basically it should be addressed to Whom it may concern, outline the reason for the letter I.E visa application for a certain person

Go on to describe who this person is and where she comes from!, how you met and how long you have known each other.

Time s you have been with one another - not in the sexual sense BTW - as in how many times you have met her etc... What she does, what you do, how long you have done it....workwise that is...

How often you keep in contact, proof will be required.

And all that sort of stuff. She went on to add that a well put together sponsorship letter, with references to your accommodation status, employment details, history of contact, verification of financial assistance (for Her in LOS!) etc. can save the embassy staff in BKK an awful lot of time.

I cannot claim to be an expert, from only a brief preliminary chat with our imm staff but they did also mention to me that the embassy in BKK is at the moment only accepting applications via an agent?

I found this a little odd, as their web-site doen't state this and maybe someone else on the board could verify this for us, but even so - from what I gleamed this afvo it was more a case of the sponsorship letter stating that you are/will be fully responsible for all finacial and accommodation needs of your intended visitor during their stay, along with providing proof of the necessary paperwork, with regards your bank a/c statements, phone bills, communications, residential status etc... etc...

Sory if I'm telling you what you already know, but I too sat down this morning and started typing one up, and oh too soon thought to myself - gawd, this is crap - hence I went to the office to ask just what it was they were really looking for!

I shall start re-doing mine tomorrow. PM me if you still need an indicator and I will try too help but maybe there are more experienced BM who would be able to offer assistance.

best of luck

Come-on Bayleaf - that's not fair

Funny perhaps - to a degree, but ellabbs is still a relatively new poster - for that matter so am I - and you??? don't see the thousand barrier broken between us, let alone individualy?? and appears to be asking a serious enough question, which maybe others will find helpful, or can offer serious input.

He will probably feel like a tw*t after seeing your post to it...!! Not nice mate.

Are you too silly to even realize you got the source and destination countries wrong??? If you want to make a stupid joke, then at least get something right...

This is true.. Started at least as far back as last year.. The embassy no longer process you directly but have a 3rd party agency that handles the paperwork processing stages.

That agency has had a lot of complaints (embassy have admitted this) and seemed pretty unprofessional (trying to hint they could help apps with bribery, not keepings peoples confidential information private, just typical low standards)..

What type of visa are you applying for?

If it is a Visitors Visa, the sponsorship letter is only a part of it. You'll find the main stumbling block will be the 'reason to return'. Meaning she would have to have land, business or something in her name that would give her cause to return to LOS after her visit to the UK. BTW kids don't count. Or a letter from an employer

Good Luck

is this the 3rd party your talking about...UK Visa



The thaivisa forum (Visa & migration) is really helpful, 1 bloke on there (the scouser) used to work for the british embassy bangkok so he knows his stuff.

reading that forum helped my gf get a 11 week visit visa in january.


good luck fellers
