About UK Visas
UK visas are required for most non-UK and non-Irish citizens to enter the United Kingdom for tourism, work, study, or settlement. Common visa types include Standard Visitor visas (up to 6 months for tourism/business), Skilled Worker visas (for employment with sponsorship), Student visas (for degree programs), Family visas (spouse, partner, dependent), and Settlement/Indefinite Leave to Remain.
All visa applications must be submitted online through official UK Government portals (gov.uk). Applicants provide biometric information (fingerprints and photo) at visa application centers operated by VFS Global or TLScontact. Processing times vary from 3 weeks for visitor visas to 3-6 months for settlement applications. Required documents typically include valid passport, proof of funds, accommodation details, purpose of visit documentation, and tuberculosis test results (for certain countries and visa types).
