What is the process and cost for bringing a Thai girlfriend to the UK for a 4-week holiday?

Chris *********

She would need to demonstrate that she will return to Thailand. Having a job, having children there, owning property etc is good and it will cost about £100 or use. If you think this would be difficult to demonstrate why not holiday together in a third country like turkey.
