UK visa requirements

The decision to issue a British visa is made on the basis of a package of documents, which is considered in Moscow. The embassy never asks to send certain certificates if something is missing. In this case, a letter of denial is sent, stating that next time stronger evidence of non-immigrant intent should be attached. We think you will agree that the collection of a package of documents is a very important part of obtaining a visa. In this section, we provide a list of the main documents for a visa. Of course, the list is quite general. We compile an individual list of documents after evaluating your situation by phone or e-mail.

The five most important documents for a visa to England

In 2017, without these documents, it makes no sense to even apply for a visa to the UK, they will still refuse, just waste your time and money. They form the basis of the application and should be at the very beginning of the presented package. The visa officer considers these documents first of all. If something is wrong with them, then no one will even look further. All in all, they are really important. Many believe that one document from this list can compensate for the absence of another (for example, a statement from an account, a certificate from work). No, EVERY document from this list, duly completed, must appear on your visa application.

1 - Application for a visa to the UK. Everyone wishing to obtain a visa to England must fill out a special visa application form in English. The questionnaire is completed online on the UK Border Agency website and contains key biographical data of the applicant, as well as information about the planned trip. The questionnaire is interactive - its content changes depending on the answers and the type of visa chosen. In the process of filling it out, you need to be extremely careful, follow the rules of transliteration and avoid mistakes.

2 - Confirmation of the purpose of the trip. It is very important to document the need for a trip. If you are a traveler traveling to England as a tourist, please attach your travel itinerary and evidence of hotel reservations in the main cities. If you are visiting friends/relatives, ask them to send you an invitation in which they explain to the visa officer how much they miss you and want to see you at home. If your trip is related to work or you are going to an exhibition / conference, attach documents confirming this.

3 - Information about employment in Russia. "A man must be in business," wrote Socrates. And his case is exactly what should encourage him to return back after a trip to England. The same opinion in 2017 is shared by the British Embassy. If you are employed, please attach proof of employment; if you study - documents from the educational institution. If you are a member of any public or professional organizations, document this. However, remember that all documents must be relevant and applicable to a particular situation.

4 - Certificate from the applicant's place of work. The certificate is drawn up in free form on the letterhead of the employer company, which indicates information about your position, work experience and average monthly earnings in the organization. If your salary is “gray”, then your actual income should be reflected in the certificate: this information is not verified. The document is certified by the signature of the responsible officer and the seal of the organization. A 2-NDFL certificate is not required: according to the new rules of 2017, the Embassy does not accept such a document for consideration.

5 - Bank account statement. In 2017, the Border Guard Service adopted new requirements for a set of documents, according to which it is not necessary to attach a bank statement reflecting the movement of funds. Only a certificate from the bank about the current balance is required. It is considered ideal when the available amount doubles the planned costs. A bank statement for a UK visa should be taken no earlier than 2 weeks before the submission of documents. If you are traveling with your family, you can submit a certificate from only one of the family members.

IMPORTANT All documents in Russian for a British visa must be accompanied by an English translation. This also applies to certificates from the place of work, as well as certificates from the bank. When contacting the company, the translation of all documents and questionnaires is included in the cost of obtaining a visa to the UK. If you are obtaining a British visa on your own, we recommend that you carefully read the samples of document translations on our company's website.

What other documents may be required for a visa?

In addition to the above documents, accompanying documents are also attached to the application for a visa to England. These documents help the visa officer better understand the applicant's situation and ultimately make the right choice. There is no single list of supporting documents. The situation of each applicant is somewhat special, each one attaches his own, separate documents. The selection of the optimal list of supporting documents for a visa to the UK should be given Special attention. Often the outcome of applying for a visa depends on them. Below is a list of documents to which you should pay special attention.

1 - Old foreign passports. If you still have old foreign passports, then they should be attached to the documents. For the British, the visa history is very important. The more extensive the collection of visas and stamps in the passport, the more likely it is to get a visa to England. The abundance of foreign trips demonstrate your financial wealth and ability to comply with visa regimes other countries. If after each trip the applicant returns to Russia, then it is highly likely that this trip will also be only temporary.

2 - Certificates of marriage / children. If you are married or have minor children, please bring copies of supporting documents. We need the most ordinary photocopies of the certificate of registration of marriage / birth of children. It is not necessary to notarize copies of certificates. Documents that you have elderly parents as dependents do not play any role for the British: a different mentality. By the way, if you are married, take a certificate from the work of your spouse, even if you are traveling alone.

3 - Documents from the place of study. If you are studying, it is advisable to attach documents from the educational institution to your visa application. The certificate is taken from the dean's office and compiled according to the standard form of the university. You can attach a copy of your student ID and grade book to the certificate (subject to good academic performance - to show that it makes no sense for you to drop out of school). Please note that in 2017 the Embassy has a negative attitude towards long trips of students during their studies. In such situations, you should obtain a certificate stating that the trip has been agreed with the university.

4 - Property documents. Contrary to popular belief, property documents do not play a big role in the issuance of a British visa. However, if any property is registered to you, we recommend that you attach supporting documents. For an apartment, these are: certificate of state registration of ownership; for the car: technical certificate. If nothing is registered to you, you should not worry about it. The property document can be from parents or spouse(s).

5 - Documents of the sponsor of the trip. If you feel that your financial documents are not convincing enough, it is worth submitting the documents of a person who can act as your sponsor. Any close relative can be a sponsor, incl. civil spouse. In addition to financial documents, a sponsorship letter must be attached from this person. Financial documents include a certificate of employment and an account statement. Note: civil marriage recognized by the British, and it can be confirmed by joint trips abroad.

6 - Consent to travel from parents. If a visa is issued for a minor child, then consent to leave Russia from the parents should be attached. If the child is traveling with one parent, permission from the other parent is required. If the child travels without parents - the consent of both parents, accompanied by a third person. Consent is given in the form of a copy, the original remains with you. You do not need to notarize a copy. No other documents, including copies of parents' passports, are attached to the consent.

7 - Cover letter. As you know, there is no UK visa interview. It is therefore important that the applicant's situation be as clear as possible. In case of any inaccuracies, the visa officer will most likely not call to clarify the information, but will prefer to simply refuse a visa. If you are afraid that the documents do not give an accurate picture of your situation, then it makes sense to attach a short cover letter to them, explaining certain points of the application. The letter is written in English.
