Why not just take a pen with you?

WHSmiths, or alternatively pilfer one from the stationary cupboard at work. I favour the Biro

I've got loads of the US visa forms but the form was recently changed so they are now useless.

I'd say take a pen and do it on the plane. I'm usually looking for something to do anyway.

Contact the local consulate for the country you are travelling to. They should have all the necessary forms.

I wouldn't have thought so but then it's been quite a while since I was living in the UK. I travelled to Thailand and the USA last year and got the visa forms from the consulates (well, the admin staff did). I went back to the States this year and the amount of paperwork was about double that of last year...again, all the forms were provided by the consulate. I was glad to have had the visa beforehand as going through US Immigration isn't exactly a quick process.

I would try a search on Google for the country you are going on holiday to and add in the words Travel Visa Application -- you might be able to get a list of the consulates in the UK with a telephone number and certainly information as to the documentation you need to provide (photos, travel dates, cost of visa) etc. Once you've got that, give the consulate a call and have them send the forms out to you.

Where are you going? Quite a few embassies have web sites, where the forms can be downloaded and printed out. Then you can fill it in at your leisure.

Try a google search on "immigration forms" and the country name. Or have a look at www.immigration.com
