Sunaree Ko — Founder
I founded UK Visa From Thailand and I write and review the guides on this site. My goal is simple: make the UK visa journey clear and stress-free for Thai applicants and their families, in plain language and honest baht pricing.
Why I started UK Visa From Thailand
Applying for a UK visa from Thailand is harder than it should be — long forms in English, strict document rules, certified translations and a VFS appointment to book. I saw how one small mistake on the paperwork could lead to a refusal and a lost government fee, and how many families felt lost in the process or worried by agents who over-promised.
I built this service to be the opposite: a careful, bilingual, honest alternative. We prepare the paperwork properly the first time, explain every step simply in Thai and English, and never promise an outcome we can't control.
What I focus on
- Accurate, complete visa application forms, in English.
- In-house certified Thai–English translation, so your documents and forms match.
- Clear, route-by-route document checklists so nothing is missed.
- Plain-language guidance and honest pricing in baht, shown up front.
- Booking your VFS appointment in Bangkok, Chiang Mai or Phuket.
How I keep these guides accurate
UK visa rules and fees change often, so every figure in our guides — the £29,000 family income requirement, the £1,035 Immigration Health Surcharge, Skilled Worker salary thresholds, VFS centre hours, the move to eVisas — is traced back to official GOV.UK sources and reviewed when the rules change. Where a number is shown in baht, it is an approximate conversion of the real pound figure, and I say so. If something is uncertain or depends on your specific case, I say that too.
A note on what we are: a document-preparation and certified-translation service — not a law firm, and not registered with the Immigration Advice Authority (IAA). I never give regulated immigration advice or “assess your chances.” If your case needs legal advice, I'll tell you and point you to the official IAA register or a qualified solicitor.
Languages & getting in touch
I work in Thai (native) and English, and our service is fully online, so we can help applicants anywhere in Thailand without an office visit. The easiest way to reach me is a quick message on LINE or the contact form — and you can always start with a free, no-obligation document check for your route.
