Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to process a UK visa in Dubai?
Standard processing time is up to 3 weeks from the date of your appointment. However, it may take longer during peak seasons.
We also provide urgent and super urgent visa services for time-sensitive travel. With our urgent service, you’ll usually receive a decision within 5 working days after your biometric appointment.
For our super urgent service, decisions are typically made by the end of the next working day after biometrics – ideal for last-minute or emergency travel.
Can I reapply if my UK visa is refused?
Yes, you can reapply for a UK visa after a refusal. It’s important to address the reasons mentioned in your refusal letter—this may involve correcting errors, providing additional documents, or clarifying your purpose of travel.
How long can I stay in the UK on a tourist visa?
You can usually stay in the UK for up to 6 months. You might be able to apply to stay for longer in certain circumstances, for example to get medical treatment.
Can I keep my passport while my UK visa application is being processed?
Yes, you can choose to keep your passport while your visa application is being assessed. After submitting your application and enrolling your biometrics, your passport will be returned to you. You will only need to submit your passport once a decision has been made on your visa.
Can I apply for a long-term UK visitor visa from Dubai?
Yes, you can apply for a long-term Standard Visitor visa if you visit the UK regularly. These visas are available for 2, 5, or 10 years, allowing you to stay for a maximum of 6 months on each visit. We can help you apply for a long-term UK visitor visa and advise on the most suitable duration based on your travel history.
Do you help with booking flights, hotels, and other supporting documents for my visa application?
Yes, we provide comprehensive end-to-end visa support that goes beyond just application preparation. Our service includes booking flight reservations suitable for visa applications, arranging hotel accommodations that meet embassy requirements, purchasing compliant travel insurance, and preparing detailed travel itineraries. We also assist with obtaining invitation letters, proof of accommodation, and any other supporting documents your specific visa requires. This means you don’t have to worry about researching which documents embassies accept, what format they need to be in, or whether your bookings are appropriate – we handle everything to make the visa process completely stress-free.
Do I need additional documents based on my reason for visiting the UK?
Yes, you need to provide additional documents depending on your specific purpose of visit. If you’re visiting the UK to study (for a short course under 6 months), as an academic (for research or teaching), for certain paid engagements or events (such as speaking at a conference or participating in a permitted paid activity), or for medical reasons (to receive private medical treatment), you must submit extra supporting documentation beyond the standard tourist visa requirements. The specific documents required vary based on your visit category – for example, academics need invitation letters from UK institutions, while those seeking medical treatment need letters from UK doctors or hospitals. We help identify which additional documents you need based on your travel purpose and ensure everything is prepared correctly to meet UKVI requirements.
