Applying from outside the UK
If you are applying from outside the UK, you will need to contact your nearest visa application centre for details of their visa application process. Some visa application centres accept applications online. To find out if you can apply online please visit the Visa4UK website.
If you are not in the UK, and if you cannot apply online you will need to fill in a visa application form. You can get a form, free of charge, from your nearest visa application centre or British mission overseas that offers a visa service, or you can download the form you need.
A complete list of visa application centres overseas is available.
