UK Visit Visa is US$138, yes, you pay in dollars. Average processing time is within 10 working days after your girlfiend goes to Bangkok to apply and get her photo and fingerprints taken.

It's not that easy. Thais need a lot of evidence about who they are, financials and reason for visiting. Since this group is not for that as Tod said, you can pm me if you want to.

Before this get's locked, you have left it far too late if the wedding is this year ! To prepare a decent application, get an appointment for the biometrics will be very difficult, let alone getting a flight at a decent price.

Not entirely true. My gf had her application processed and ok'd within 7 days. But it is cutting it a bit fine. I'd advise the OP to go through the online application asap, pay and get an appointment for her. Then get everything together asap.

Unfortunately this is a group designed to help foreigners get visas for thailand NOT get thais visas for other places.

There is a UK group about that though, I would post there.
