Important Information

UK visa fee non-refundable even if rejected. ⚠️ Bangladesh is NOT eligible for UK Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) — full visa application required. TB Test mandatory for stays exceeding 6 months — IOM-approved clinic in Dhaka, costs ~৳6,000-8,000 (valid 6 months). Bank statements must be official certified stamped printouts — internet-printed statements cause rejection. Long-term visas (2/5/10 years) are easier to obtain after first successful 6-month visit. Previous Schengen, US, or UAE visa significantly strengthens UK application. VFS cash payments no longer accepted — credit/debit card only at VFS centre. Do NOT apply more than 3 months before intended travel date. Processing time measured from biometrics date — document verification may extend timeline for Bangladeshi applicants.
