Fiancé Visa

Are you planning to marry your partner and start a life together in the UK? The UK Fiancé Visa is the ideal choice for couples who wish to get married in the UK and then settle down. This visa enables your partner to join you in the UK and make your dream wedding a reality. Here’s everything you need to know about the UK Fiancé Visa and how we can guide you through the process.

What is a UK Fiancé Visa?

The UK Fiancé Visa, also known as the Marriage Visa, allows you to bring your fiancé(e) to the UK for six months so you can get married or enter into a civil partnership. Once married, you can apply to switch to a UK Spouse Visa, allowing you to stay together in the UK long-term.

Eligibility Requirements for a UK Fiancé Visa

To be eligible for a UK Fiancé Visa, you and your partner must meet several key criteria:

  1. Relationship Requirements:
    • You must be engaged to a British citizen or someone with settled status (like Indefinite Leave to Remain).
    • You must intend to marry or enter into a civil partnership within 6 months of arriving in the UK.
    • You should have met your partner in person and be able to prove your relationship is genuine and subsisting.
  2. Financial Requirements:
    • You (or your partner) must demonstrate a combined annual income of at least £29,000.
    • This threshold increases if you have dependent children.
    • Income can be from employment, self-employment, savings, or other legitimate sources.
  3. English Language Requirements:
    • You must prove your English language proficiency through an approved test unless you are from an English-speaking country or hold a relevant qualification.
  4. Accommodation:
    • You must have adequate accommodation arranged for both of you, without relying on public funds.

Key Benefits of a UK Fiancé Visa

  • 6-Month Stay: Allows you to enter the UK for 6 months to get married or register a civil partnership.
  • Work Flexibility: Though you cannot work during the 6-month period, once married, you can switch to a Spouse Visa, which permits you to work or study in the UK.
