VFS Global, one of the world's largest
outsourcing and technology services specialists for governments
and diplomatic missions, has opened a fourth Mobile Visa
Application Centre (MVAC) for UK visa applicants in Bangkok,
Thailand.
The new MVAC is located at Icon Siam shopping
mall, joining the three others in the city at Crystal Design
Centre, Siam Paragon and Thanya Park.
The Mobile Visa Application Centre (MVAC) is a
customised mobile facility, equipped with end-to-end technology to
enroll biometrics and accept UK visa applications remotely from
any location for individual or group submissions.
Key benefits of VFS Global’s Mobile Visa
Application Centre include:
1. Convenience to visa applicants through
improved accessibility;
2. Greater reach for governments,
authorities with the ability to service remote locations;
3.
Requirements can be scheduled on-demand at short notice to service
applicant-surges or emergencies at any location; and
4. Data capture
and transfer through secure and certified systems.
To book
the service, applicants must select any of the four Mobile VAC
locations in Bangkok after applying for their visa online.
There is a minimal fee of THB 3,800 per application which
must be paid online through credit card. A discounted rate is
available for M Scarlet, VIZ card (THB3,093), Platinum and Siam Piwat Employees (THB3,270).
The MVAC at Icon Siam Mall is located in front of
door number 10
(next to Dear Tummy Grocery) on the ground
floor. It is open every Tuesday and
Friday from 10:00 to 16:00.
“With the addition of
our fourth state-of-the-art MVAC to our network in Bangkok, we aim
to enhance the overall application and service experience of the
UK visa applicants, irrespective of their location,” said Kaushik
Ghosh, Head - Australasia, VFS Global. “This
cost-effective technology enables secure submission of biometric
data, does not require a permanent physical infrastructure, and
acts as a reliable backup to a physical Visa Application Centre
with its round-the-clock service capabilities.”

of
more than 3,400 Application Centres in 144 countries. The company
