Family Visitors

If you intend to come to the UK as a family visitor, you may need to show that you will be visiting qualifying family members in the UK, such as a spouse, civil partner, parent, child, grandparent, grandchild, sibling, aunt, uncle, nephew, niece or first cousin, or certain relatives by marriage.

Applicants must demonstrate that they intend to leave at the end of the visit, can support and accommodate themselves and any dependants, and can meet the cost of the return or onward journey. Visitor conditions generally prohibit taking employment, studying beyond permitted limits, marrying or giving notice of marriage, or receiving private medical treatment under the standard visitor route.

Requirements depend on individual circumstances and the rules in force when you apply. Contact us before submitting your application.
