There are many visa options depending on the continent/specific country that you wish to visit. This also varies depending on the purpose of your visit to your destination. Below you can find the most common visa types that we offer support for and the options available.
UK Visas
A UK visa is the authorization document that allows foreign nationals to enter, temporarily reside, or permanently reside in the UK. A visa is typically either a passport stamp or a document issued by the British consulate or embassy in your country of residence.
All foreign nationals wishing to enter the UK for more than 90 days must apply for a visa. Non-EEA citizens must also apply for a visitor visa for stays of less than 90 days, whereas EEA nationals can enter the country visa-free for up to 90 days.
There are a variety of UK visas available, ranging from short-term to long-term visas; the right one for you will depend on your reason for entering and your length of stay.
There are tourist visas, work visas, study visas, family visas, business visas, and transit visas available. Numerous UK visas can also serve as a pathway to Indefinite Leave to Remain, a crucial step toward British citizenship.
You can apply for a UK visa online by filling out our enquiry form and you will also be required to submit documents to support your application to prove that you meet the eligibility criteria for your required visa.

- Non-immigrant visas. Issued for temporary stays in the United States, including tourism, business, employment, family visit, and study.
