countries for better lifestyle and career study
options, the number of people opting to go
overseas has increased. UK has been a very
popular country for people in India to migrate to
for both travel and living purposes. Also, the
decrease in the cost of airfare has also made a
difference like for example, the Mumbai to London
flight does not cost as much as it used to a
decade or so ago. So, the demand for UK visa has
increased a lot becuse of the above stated
reasons. In this article, we look at the types of
UK visa and the details about them

It should be noted that the processing time of
all the types of visas mentioned above is equal
and is around 15 days. It is advisable to apply
for the UK visa at least three months prior to
the date of travel. It is also advisable to buy a
travel insurance or health insurance before
travelling (in case you dont have it already) so
as to protect you during the travel against any
medical or travel related emergency like flight
cancellation, baggage loss, theft etc. Also, as
the UK visa process does not require confirmed
return flight tickets, the visa applicants can
wait for their visa approval before booking their
tickets. So, as we saw in this article, there
are many options to get UK visa for travel and
living purpose. We hope this article was helpful
to you and informed you about various types of UK
visa and the specific details about them. Have a
great day!
