Do students need a visa to enter the UK?

In many cases, a visa is required for entry into the UK. This can be obtained from the UK embassy. Students should allow two to three months for the application process. Visas for family members who are travelling with you should be applied for at the same time.

What types of visas are there?

Dependent on the length of your stay in the UK, there are various types of visas:

Tier 4 Student Visa:
This visa is valid for a stay – in the UK only – of more than three months. If during your time in the UK you are planning to visit another country, please say so when making your visa application so that instead of a national visa you are issued another or additional type of visa. After entering the country student should, with his visa, apply to the local ‘Ausländerbehörde’ (Aliens’ Registration Authority) for a residence permit, since the national visa is generally issued initially for three months only.

If the STUDENT has received notification of admission to university or a foundation course, he should apply for a visa for study purposes. Student visas are usually valid for three months. Within these three months, he will have to apply for an extended residence permit at the Alien Registration Office in his university town.

Within one week after arriving in the UK student must register with the ‘Einwohnermeldeamt’ (Residents’ Registration Office) in order to register his new place of residence. The student’s institute will advise him of the name and address of the competent office. In order to register with the ‘Einwohnermeldeamt’ he will require:

  • Passport / Identity card
  • Visa
  • An application to register
