A UK Visitor Visa, also known as the Standard Visitor Visa, allows individuals to visit the United Kingdom for up to 6 months for:
✔ Tourism and holidays
✔ Visiting family and friends
✔ Business meetings and professional events
✔ Short-term study (up to 6 months)
✔ Private medical treatment
✔ Academic research or exchange programmes
At Hawflein Solutions, our expert immigration consultants provide tailored guidance to ensure a smooth and successful UK Visitor Visa application.
A Standard Visitor Visa has replaced multiple visa categories since 1 December 2020, including:
✔ Family Visitor Visa
✔ Business Visitor Visa
✔ Sports & Entertainer Visitor Visa
✔ Private Medical Treatment Visa
✔ Prospective Entrepreneur Visa
This visa offers flexibility while ensuring compliance with UK immigration laws.
A Standard Visitor Visa is typically valid for 6 months, but exceptions apply:
📌 Private medical patients: May extend up to 11 months
📌 Academics meeting specific criteria: May stay for up to 12 months
At Hawflein Solutions, we assess your eligibility and help you apply for the correct visa duration.
To qualify, you must:
✔ Prove your intention to leave the UK after your visit
✔ Show financial stability to support your stay
✔ Not seek public funds or employment
✔ Avoid extended or consecutive visits that suggest long-term residency
📌 Unsure if you qualify? Our experts will review your case and strengthen your application.
Even if you meet the requirements, your visa may be refused due to:
❌ Lack of proof that you will return home
❌ Insufficient financial resources
❌ Concerns over visa misuse
At Hawflein Solutions, we minimise the risk of refusal by ensuring your application is complete and compelling.
