Visa rules and regulations

glennpr

What are the steps for my girlfriend to visit my country ( UK) for a 2 month holiday, she has never visited another country but in UK she needs a Visa. She is Moroccan and we have known eachother for 7 years, I visit her often in Morocco and I'd like her to see my country.

Is it easy or hard to get the visa, we plan to marry soon so will it make it harder getting a visa for her. I'm currently unemployed due to illness and live on a government income

Hello glennpr,


Your thread is now on the England forum. 😀


Your girlfriend will need to apply for a Standard Visitor Visa for the UK. The process includes filling out an online application, paying the fee, attending a visa appointment, and providing supporting documents such as proof of funds and ties to Morocco. You can read more here


Since you are unemployed and on government support, she must show she can finance her stay independently.


I also recommend that your girlfriend visit the embassy to obtain more detailed information.


All the best,


Cheryl

Just to add what's already been said....


Moroccan nationals are usually allowed to stay in the UK for up to 180 days under the UK Standard Visitor Visa terms. This visa is valid for six months and can be used several times.
