UK Releases Visitor Visa Guide: Nigerians Can Apply Directly Online
The UK government has published a clear guide for applying directly for a Standard Visitor visa online. This removes the need for travel agents or third-party services. You can apply from three months before your travel date and must attend an in-person appointment at a visa application centre. Each applicant needs their own booking, though someone may apply on behalf of a partner or child. A standard six-month visa costs £135. Visitors seeking medical treatment can apply for an 11-month visa at £234. Academics may apply for a 12-month visa for the same fee. Frequent travellers can opt for two-, five-, or ten-year visas, with each stay capped at six months. Fees range from £506 to £1,128. This guide gives Nigerians full control of their applications and cuts out extra agent fees.
