British Embassy allows submissions and payments online

Chris White, the Regional Representative of the UK on visas and immigration, has revealed that the new visa requirements will allow online submission of applications along with payments. This will be followed by an interview with the individual seeking travel to the UK.

According to the official, the applicant is expected to come in biometric clinic to apply and pass fingerprint after which the data will be forwarded to Turkey in the agency’s office in Istanbul.

All the documents will be returned back to Bishkek after the commission decides on the issuance of visa. Though the time taken for the process is 15 days, efforts will be made to lessen the time frame, he added.

If visa will be on demand from Kyrgyzstan, such a center can be launched in Bishkek in future. This will avoid sending documents to Istanbul. Biometric clinic in Bishkek accepts documents and biometric data for visa to the UK.
