What documents will I need to apply for a UK Visa?

When making a UK Visa application, one of the most important parts of your application is the portfolio of supporting documents you submit alongside the application form. Without this portfolio, your application won’t be accepted.

The supporting documents you need to submit will vary depending on the requirements you need to meet for your chosen UK Visa, but generally you will need the following documents:

• Your application form for the UK Visa you are applying for
• A valid passport, with at least one blank page for your visa to go into.
• Two passport-sized photographs
• Proof that you can support yourself financially whilst in the UK, such as bank statements
• Your biometric information, this is your fingerprints and photo and can be taken at a nearby application centre
• Proof you have paid your Visa fees

If any of your documents are not in English or Welsh then you will need to submit certified translations.
