Hi guys,

Just wanted to post an advice: when you travel to UK, do it the corporate way. Yes, the world is flat, however corporate stuff helps flatten it even smoother. No matter who you are, where you have traveled, what your intension are - do apply a visa using professional services of a company who specialize in this.

E.g. when applied for regular tourist visa to get to FOWA conference in UK with all my experience and even US visa in international passport here is the kind of reply I got. Didn’t take it personally, it’s probably quite a few tourist visa applications that embassy specialist have been processing at that time. That is why, no matter how world is flat, don’t forget to travel professionally.
