Official UK visa application website in Bahrain

  • Who Are We?

    VFS Global is a commercial company, working in partnership with the UK Border Agency to help people apply for a visa to enter the United Kingdom (UK)


  • How Can We Help You?

    VFS also manages the visa application centre for UK Border Agency here in The Kingdom of Bahrain where you should submit your visa application form, supporting documents, biometric data and pay the visa application fee. The details of the visa application centre can be found in the 'Contact Us' section of this website.

    Information about the UK's immigration rules and policies can be found on the UK Border Agency Visa Services website (www.ukvisas.gov.uk).


  • Where Can I Get Advice?

    VFS Global and its staff cannot give you advice on how to complete your application, or what type of visa you should apply for. If you need help with your application or advice about the UK's immigration rules and requirements, you should seek advice from a qualified immigration adviser. In the UK immigration advisers regulated by the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC - www.oisc.gov.uk).

    You can also obtain advice from legally qualified professionals regulated by designated professional bodies. A list of legally qualified professionals who can advise on immigration matters can be downloaded from the following websites:

    Law Society of England and Wales
    Law Society of Scotland
    Law Society of Northern Ireland
    Institute of Legal Executives

    Please note: The Law Societies of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland and the Institute of Legal Executives cannot provide direct help or advice on visa applications. They can only provide a list of law firms who can advise on immigration matters.


  • Who Decides If I Will Get A Visa?

    All visa applications submitted in Bahrain are processed by the UK Border Agency in Abu Dhabi. Your visa application will be processed and decided by UK Border Agency staff. VFS staff do not play any part in or influence the outcome of your visa application.

    If any member of our staff claims to be able to influence your application, you should inform the UK Border Agency at the nearest British diplomatic mission as soon as possible.
