UK Standard Visitor Visa
The UK Standard Visitor Visa allows you to travel to the United Kingdom for tourism, to visit family and friends, or for short business or leisure trips — typically for up to six months.
The UK now issues visitor visas as a digital eVisa — there is no vignette sticker placed in your passport. Visit visas are also available for different validity periods, from a single 6-month visit to long-term visas valid for 2, 5 or 10 years, each allowing stays of up to six months per visit.
Visaxpress is an independent private company that prepares and organises the paperwork for your UK Standard Visitor Visa. UKVI publishes its document requirements at gov.uk. We do not provide UK immigration advice, and you submit your own application directly to UKVI.

Long-term visit visas are also available — approximately £506 (2 years), £903 (5 years) and £1,128 (10 years). Long-term visas allow multiple visits, but each stay is limited to a maximum of 6 months. The Immigration Health Surcharge does not apply to standard visitors.
