eVisas

What is an eVisa?

An eVisa is an online record of your immigration status and the conditions of your permission to enter or stay in the UK. You can prove your immigration permission in the UK and view your eVisa via your UKVI account.

You can find further information on eVisas on the governement website.

Reporting eVisa errors

If you’re outside the UK and have permission to travel to the UK, you’ll need to check the information in your UKVI account is correct before you travel.

You can do this by:

• using the view and prove your immigration status service to check your immigration status is displaying correctly and you have permission to travel to the UK – if your immigration status is displaying incorrectly, report an error with your eVisa
• using the update your UKVI account details service to check:
  • the passport you’ll use for travel is linked to your account
  • your personal details are correct

You should also check that the passenger information you’ve provided to the carrier matches the details on your passport or immigration permission.
