Introduction
If you are not sure whether you require a visa to visit the United
Kingdom, you should check before making an application. You can
do this by using the questionnaire 'Do I need a visa' on the UK
Border Agency website.
Declaration
Before final submission of the application, you will be required
to confirm that you have read the 'Declaration' section by signing
in the box provided. You should do this by entering your name.
This 'Declaration' section must be signed by you, the applicant,
personally, and not by a representative or another person acting
on your behalf. An application for a person under the age of 18
may be completed by the parent or legal guardian.
All sections of the revised visa application form need to be completed.
Failure to do so could result in the application being rejected,
causing further delays.
