UK Spouse Visa

The UK Spouse Visa allows the married partners of British or Irish citizens, individuals settled in the UK, those with pre-settled status, holders of Turkish Businessperson or Turkish Worker visas, as well as those with refugee status or humanitarian protection, to join or remain with their spouse in the UK. This visa is also available if your spouse is currently outside the UK but plans to return with you.

This visa provides a pathway to indefinite leave to remain or settlement in the UK after five years.
