TLDR : Answer Summary
The individual inquired whether it is possible to secure a single visa for their Thai partner to travel to both the UK and Australia. Responses indicated that each country has separate visa requirements, and separate applications are necessary for each destination.

Despite Australia being part of the Commonwealth and ultimately having the King as the head of Government, the two countries, Australia and Great Britain have separate immigration laws that each require visas for entry to the respective country.

Australia still a commonwealth country at moment , but yes lol , separate countries , commonwealth visa would be a good idea though ,. Would get to loads of places , no visa required , with British passport

I am glad you told me they are different countries I would not have guessed

I was thinking of flying to Aus then the UK and then returning back to Thailand

@Gordon ********
you would need a visa for every country you are going to enter depending on the passport. That's obvious. If you're just talking about a layover then you'd need to ask that.

Your partner needs a visa for UK and a visa for Australia
