UK Fiancé Visa

The UK Fiancé Visa is designed for individuals engaged to British or Irish citizens, those settled in the UK, holders of pre-settled status, Turkish Businessperson or Turkish Worker visa holders, or individuals with refugee status or humanitarian protection. This visa allows you to enter the UK with the intention of marrying your partner within six months of arrival. It is important to note that applications for this visa must be made from outside the UK.

While the Fiancé Visa itself does not lead directly to settlement, it provides a pathway to extend your stay through the Spouse Visa route after marriage. The Spouse Visa, in turn, can lead to indefinite leave to remain or settlement in the UK after five years.
