Official UK Visa Application Website in India

The visa application centres in India accept UK visa applications from customers in India, Bhutan and Afghanistan

  • Who Are We?

    VFS Global is a commercial company, working in partnership with the UK Border Agency at the British High Commission and Deputy High Commissions here in India providing services to help people apply for a visa to enter the United Kingdom (UK).


  • How Can We Help You?

    You will find information on this website, supplied by UK Border Agency about how to apply for a visa to enter the UK, if you need one. You can also use the VFS free email service and telephone enquiry service (call rates apply) to obtain the same information. VFS also manages visa application centres for the UK Border Agency here in India where you should submit your completed visa application form, supporting documents and biometric data. Please see the 'Contact Us' page on this website for VFS visa application centre addresses and contact details.

    Information about the UK's Immigration Rules can be found on UK Border Agency website.


  • Where Can I Get Advice?

    VFS staff cannot give you advice on how to complete your application, or what type of visa you should apply for. If you need help with your application or advice about the UK's immigration rules and requirements, you should seek advice from a qualified immigration adviser. In the UK immigration advisers are regulated by the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC).

    You can also obtain advice from legally qualified professionals regulated by designated professional bodies. A list of legally qualified professionals who can advise on immigration matters can be downloaded from the following websites:

    Law Society of England and Wales
    Law Society of Scotland
    Law Society of Northern Ireland
    Institute of Legal Executives

    Please note: The Law Societies of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and the Institute of Legal Executives cannot provide direct help or advice on visa applications. They can only provide a list of law firms who can advise on immigration matters.


  • Who Decides If I Will Get A Visa?

    Your visa application will be processed and decided by UK Border Agency staff. VFS staff do not play any part in or influence the outcome of your visa application. If VFS staff claim to be able to influence your visa application, you should inform the UK Border Agency here in India as soon as possible.
