Do you want to get an Australian visitor visa for your Thai girlfriend? First and foremost, make sure she is comfortable and interested in coming to Australia. It goes without saying but the visa is for her to come to Australia. She should be interested in it. Normally this won’t be a problem, however, it is good practice to discuss with your Thai girlfriend whether she really wants to come to Australia. If she wants to come then go ahead to begin the process of getting her an Australian visa. Its worth noting that, Thai visitor visa applicants are usually considered as having high-risk profiles to Australian Immigration. Women from Thailand face a real challenge when applying for an Australian visitor visa. In addition to other visa requirements, they must prove they have access to sufficient funds to pay for their holiday. They must also prove that they are a genuine tourist and will return to Thailand.

Decide when is the best time for you and your Thai Girlfriend to come to Australia. The process of getting your Thai girlfriend an Australian Tourist visa will take few weeks or longer. So you should try to work out exactly when you need the visa. Once visa is granted she will have (usually) three months to enter Australia and activate the visa. Her visa stay period (e.g., three months) in Australia will begin on the day she will arrive in Australia.

You to need to have your girlfriend or fiancée's visitor / partner visa application in perfect order. Don't delay starting the visa process as the visa application process for Thai nationals to visit Australia can be an incredible burden on anyone and is really best left to the pros. You will need many documents to get your girlfriend her visa. The Australia embassy in Thailand is quite strict about issuing travel visas and navigating the visa process can be, as stated above, a nightmare. So, do not wait to start getting your documents ready. If your visa application isn’t totally sorted it will be rejected, and then you’ll have to wait months to sort and try again.

Its always better to prepare a list of documents in Thai or English and give your Thai girlfriend. It is important to make sure your Thai girlfriend is comfortable. If she doe not speak great English then you may seek assistance from an interpreter and speaking in Thai will give your Thai girlfriend a feeling of confidence. She will know that you have her best interests at heart by ensuring she understands everything in Thai. She can also ask any questions she has and get an answer from a Thai speaking interpreter.

Is she is employed, then contact her employer and tell them about your Thai girlfriend’s plan to come to Australia. It is important to tell immigration about her employment in Thailand. This means they will need to know where she works, how long and what kind of position she holds. Immigration might may call her employer to verify the details of her employment. Therefore, it is important that her employer knows all about her visa application, so that, if they employer is contacted by the Australia immigration department, they will be able to confirm the details of the application, e/g/, how long she will have off work. Conversely, if your girlfriend is unemployed, it does not mean that she will not get an Australian visitor visa but it is wise to consult with a qualified immigration professional.

If you hire a registered immigration agent, s/he will provide you with a complete list of documents and other requirements. Try to gather the documents required by your migration agent to lodge the visa application in time. All documents that are not in English must be accompanied by an approved translation (e.g., NAATI). You must also provide the original Thai document. We can assist you to translate Thai documents to English by a certified NAATI translator. Documents that are translated by a certified NAATI translator doesn't require additional approval or certification. The translated document usually does not have an expiry date however if the original document (e.g. police clearance or driving license) expires then the translation is voided.
