UK visa in Bangladesh
Bangladeshi applicants for UK visa need to pay online from Nov 28
All applicants wishing to apply for a UK visa in Bangladesh must make payment online on the official UK government website prior to submitting their passports and biometrics at their designated Visa Application Centre from November 28.
“In line with Bangladesh’s impressive ongoing digitisation, now is the time to adopt a fully digital approach and streamline the visa payment process for all applicants,” said British High Commissioner to Bangladesh Robert Chatterton Dickson on Sunday (November 20, 2022).
UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) will shortly move all visa application payments online, said the British High Commission in Dhaka.

Currently, customers have the choice to pay online or cash at the Visa Application Centre.
Dickson said the UK is a popular choice for those wishing to work, study or just visit.
In the year ending June 2022, he said, over 24,400 visas were issued to Bangladeshi nationals, an 84 percent increase on the previous year.
