Visas for the UK

How do I apply for a UK visa in Kosovo?

The British Embassy in Pristina does not issue visas. Applicants have to apply via the British Embassy in Skopje. Please see the details below.

Where can I get information?

The UK Border Agency and the British Embassy Skopje work in partnership with a commercial organisation: Worldbridge. You can find out whether you need a visa and how to apply through Worldbridge's website at www.visainfoservices.com . Worldbridge also provides information through an e-mail enquiry service. All the information provided is supplied and approved by the UK Border Agency.

Do I have to pay?

Website and email information is free of charge.

Where can I get advice?

Worldbridge and its staff are unable to 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 these are immigration advisers regulated by the Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner (OISC - www.oisc.gov.uk) or legally qualified professionals regulated by designated professional bodies.

Their websites are:

Law Society of England and Wales

Law Society of Scotland

 Law Society of Northern Ireland

Institute of Legal Executives

How do I submit my application?

You should submit your application through our online application service visa4uk.fco.gov.uk at the Visa Section of the British Embassy Skopje.

Who decides whether I will get a visa?

Your visa application will be processed and decided by UK Border Agency staff. Neither Worldbridge, nor any of its staff play any part in, nor can they influence the outcome of your visa application. If any member of staff employed by Worldbridge claim to be able to influence your application you should inform the British Embassy Skopje as soon as possible.
