What Visa services does the UK offer?
It depends on your nationality. For citizens of Kuwait, Oman, Qatar or the United Arab Emirates, the British government and British immigration offer the electronic visa waiver (EVW).

The entire Visa service process is online and takes a few minutes on the UK Visa and Immigration website. After submitting your UK visa application form online along with the required UK visa documents and paying the visa application fee, you will receive your visa by email. You can travel to the UK 48 hours after the visa is issued.

For other nationalities, you will need to submit your UK visa application directly to the UK Visa Application Center such as VFS Global along with your visa list for the documents required for a standard visitor visa or other type of visa, and then submit your United Kingdom. Apply for a visa at the nearest UK embassy or consulate.

How long is the UK visa valid?
The UK visa is valid for six months, one year, two years or five years. The standard UK visitor visa expires after or after you leave, whichever comes first if you had a single-entry visa. ...
... A multiple-entry visa allows you to enter the UK as many times as you want during the visa's validity period. This visa can be used for medical, study, business and tourism purposes.

When should I apply for a UK visa?
It is recommended that the visa applicant begin the UK visa process at least 3 months prior to travel. Make sure everything is correct with your UK visa application form.

Are there multiple entry EVWs in the UK?
A UK Entry Visa and a UK Multiple Entry Visa are available depending on the type of standard visitor visa you are applying for. You can only apply for the UK entry visa once every six months. After your departure, your visa will expire. If you have more than one entry, you can complete them multiple times.

How long does it take to process the UK visa?
For EVW the waiting time for the UK visa is only 24 hours. Once you have completed your UK Visa Application Form online you will need to attach and submit the UK Visa Requirements List. If it takes more than 24 hours, the UK visa application form online may be incorrect.

When submitting an application to an embassy or consulate, the waiting time for the UK visa application process can be up to 10 days depending on various factors.

What documents are required for the UK visa?
To avoid being denied a UK visa, you will need to include various visa and tourist visa requirements and a list of documents on your UK visa application, including:
Your current passport
Current passport photo
Your UK address where you will be staying
A valid email address
Entry and exit dates and times
