Visit Visa

Visit Visa

Family visitor’s visa

A family visitor is considered an applicant’s spouse, father, mother, son, daughter, grandfather, grandmother, grandchild, granddaughter, brother, sister, uncle, aunt, nephew, niece, or first cousin.

We must demonstrate sufficient finances are available when applying.

Bank statements or wages are evidence (such as a letter from an employer or the sponsor providing financial support). If the applicant is not a native applicant of the country from which they are applying, they must additionally give:

  • Proof of legal residency.
  • Evidence of family relations who live in the UK.
  • The purpose of their visit.

Business visit visa

A Business Visitor visa lets you stay in the UK for up to six months for business or work-related purposes. Our professional immigration solicitors can assist you or your staff in obtaining the visa required to take advantage of business opportunities in the UK. It is advisable to get legal counsel before making any trip plans.

Your home country will determine whether you need to apply for a business visitor visa before visiting the UK. There are also restrictions on the sort of employment and business activities you can engage in. Our solicitors will acquaint you with your circumstances to ensure that you receive the appropriate visa for your business needs. We’ll explain how any limitations may affect you and provide you with tips on how to stay compliant.

Unlike Tier 2 visas, they do not require official sponsorship from a UK-based sponsor, but any errors on your application might result in inconvenient delays. However, our skilled solicitors can ensure that you receive your visa for your business trip, allowing you to focus on what’s essential. We can also assist you if your visa is denied or you have a history of immigration issues.

How Do I Qualify and Apply for A Business Visitor Visa?

You must qualify the following requirements:

  • Must have a genuine purpose to leave once you’ve offered out your approved job activities.
  • Not make the UK your home by touring frequently.
  • You should have sufficient wealth to support yourself during your visit.
  • Not accept pay for any additional activities offered in the UK unless a “permitted paid engagement.”
  • Not involved in unauthorised activities, such as setting up a business in the UK or charging members of the public for services or goods received
  • Not plan to take on any other work in the UK, outside of what you’ve travelled for.

You can apply online and will have to provide supporting documents and evidence that proves you’re planning to travel only for business purposes. You’ll also have to:

  • Pay an application fee.
  • Attend a visa office appointment to submit your supporting documentation.
  • Provide pertinent biometric data (fingerprints and digital photographs).

We have years of expertise in filling out and submitting visa applications for both corporations and individuals. We’ll guide you on if you qualify, how and where to prove it, and make sure all your paperwork is in order.

How Long Does It Take?

If you filled out the application correctly, it might take 3 to 12 weeks to receive your visa. This is because the Home Office thoroughly reviews all applications, and any errors might result in delays. That is why you must complete the application correctly the first time. After that, we can assist you with applying so that you don’t make any mistakes. If you require a visa right away, the Home Office has a Priority Service to decide within five business days. A Super Priority Service is also offered, where clients may select a day and time within 24 hours. Both services are available for a fee – contact us today to learn more.

We’ve helped several firms and workers deal with complicated immigration concerns. Our professionals are well-versed in UK immigration law and will take the time to understand your circumstances before providing legal advice fully. We’ve been working on visa applications for years and can tell you if your intended business activity qualifies for a Business Visitor visa. If it is, we will assist you with the application procedure and even file a complaint with the Home Office if you are wrongly denied.

If it isn’t, we can provide substitutes so you may proceed with your objectives. We understand how stressful applying for a visa may be; therefore, we work hard to alleviate that burden for you. We’ll give you advice and explain things in easy English, so you know what we’re doing, always kept in the loop at every level. Legal directories Chambers & Partners and Legal 500 have named us one of the top law firms in the UK. With offices across the country, we can assist you no matter where you are.
