Hello,

 

I want to bring a Thai (bar girl) to Australia for either a holiday or a working holiday. I have a business and could employ her for the duration of her stay.

 

I understand it is complicated bringing a bar girl into Australia for a holiday. Is it easier to get her into Australia on a working holiday? How much would she need to have in her bank account for each circumstance? Does she need to have as much money in the bank if she is coming to Australia for a working holiday? 

 

Any information on requirements for the visa would be greatly appreciated. I can provide any further information on request. Please ask. I want to get to the bottom of this.

 

Mods please move my post to appropriate forum if it's not where it ought to be.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Benn.  

 

 

I suggest you don’t mention the ‘bar girl’ bit.

As an after thought, who told you about the Mods

A starting point for working holiday visa...

Tourist visa...

The reason it's complicated is that they are trying to do you a favour. 

Assume she has a passport ?? otherwise do that first,

then send her to VFS Global  and talk to them 

 

For any visa's to australia now, an Immirgration Medical required, VFS will give you the Details

She doesn't have a chance of getting a working holiday visa.  

Easiest to get a holiday visa.  Presumably you are not in a relationship with her so don't bother getting involved, its too much effort and expense to get her to Aus if you have no real connection to her. 

Speaking from experience, its cheaper and less hassle to just take a few more trips to LOS every year than bring them here.  

Thanks all for the replies. I have to agree with Minko now actually... I'll just go to Thailand more.
