Standard Visitor Visa

About Standard Visitor Visa

The Standard Visitor Visa is the main route for people coming to the UK for tourism, visiting family or friends, short courses, private medical treatment or other permitted activities. You must show that your visit is genuine, that you intend to leave at the end, and that you can support yourself during your stay. Refusals are common where ties to the home country or finances are not clearly evidenced. RakLAW Solicitors help you build a strong, credible application that addresses the caseworker's concerns from the outset.

Who this is for

  • Tourists exploring the UK for leisure
  • Family members visiting relatives settled in the UK
  • Patients travelling for private medical treatment
  • Attendees of short recreational courses or events

How RakLAW helps

  • Assess your eligibility and recommend the right route
  • Prepare a tailored application and cover letter
  • Compile financial, family and travel evidence
  • Challenge unfair refusals and re-apply where appropriate
