UK Visitor/tourist Visa: Requirements and Application Process
If you are planning a short-term visit to the UK for leisure, business, or other purposes, you will need to apply for a UK Visitor visa. This guide will provide you with information on the requirements and application process for a UK visa.
Eligibility Requirements
To apply for a UK Visitor visa, you must meet the following eligibility requirements:
- You intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit.
- You have enough funds to support yourself and any dependants during your stay.
- You have enough funds to pay for your return or onward journey.
- You will not live in the UK for extended periods through frequent or successive visits, or make the UK your main home
- You meet all other eligibility requirements.
Types of UK Visitor Visa Applications
There are several types of UK Visitor visa applications, including:
- Standard Visitor Visa
- Family Visitor Visa
- Business Visitor Visa
- Marriage Visitor Visa
- Medical Visitor Visa
- Challenging Visitor Visa Refusal
- UK Visitor Visa from India
- Required Documents
To apply for a UK Visitor visa, you will generally need to provide the following documents:
- Current valid passport
- Planned travel dates.
- Accommodation details
- Estimated trip costs.
- Current address and length of residence
- Parents’ names and dates of birth (if known)
- Income information (if applicable)
- Details of any criminal, civil, or immigration offences
Depending on your circumstances, you may also need to provide additional documents such as a travel history for the past 10 years or a tuberculosis (TB) test certificate.
Application Fees
The Home Office fees for a Standard Visitor visa application are £100 for a 6-month visa. If you visit the UK regularly, you may want to apply for a long-term Standard Visitor visa instead.
Appealing a Refusal
If your UK Visitor visa application is refused, you cannot challenge or appeal the decision. However, you can challenge the refusal by way of the Pre-action Protocol (PAP) and Judicial Review (JR).
Reapplying After Refusal
In some cases, it may be best to reapply for a UK Visitor visa rather than challenging the previous refusal. If you choose this option, you will need to address the reasons for the previous refusal in your new application.
