You dont need a transit visa travelling through Turkiye so that should remain as an option to the traveler. That has nothing to do with E visa cancelled. Even when it was available Nigeria passport holders did not need one to transit through Turkiye

ekpotek:
Things has change a lot for Nigerian passport holder. You are right. The poser should check this website for information on how to apply for ATV. https://www.netherlandsworldwide.nl/visa-the-netherlands/airport-transit-visa/apply-nigeria

Better still, poser can avoid the Schengen area by using airlines like Turkish, Ethiopia, Kenya or Emirate.

So I was refuse visa yesterday. Reasons do not make sense to me. Yesterday was the graduation ceremony and he waited for 8weeks before refusing the visa. The officer claimed I didn't explain spending more money. However, I submitted a cover explaining all debits and credits on my bank statement for the 6 month period. To me his reasons are vague and flimsy and I'll like to complain. Do anyone know how I can go about it?

A friend of mine got 10 years ban from Uk because he forgot to state that he had Uk visa refusal when filling his application.
Please I want to ask if he has a chance to appeal or what can he do please.

I am about applying for a renewal UK Visit Visa. I was refused a German Visa in 2019. When I applied for a UK Visit Visa in 2020 I decleared this refusal. My question is, since I was granted a UK Visit Visa in 2020, do I need to declare the German Visa refusal each time I apply for a renewal UK Visa?

If you need a PTA, follow instructions as on form A website and visit your bank to get one
During your departure, arrival and exist from the UK, have with you evidence you deem important for successful admissions into and exist from the UK.

Enjoy your trip...don't mind that garbage in-garbage out fellow..
Thanks

leef2022:
With due respect to you, I was not responding to her post, but yours and requirements to process a PTA.

You may wish to educate me pls, is there anywhere the UK home office states if you are going for a visit to the UK and its borders, that you must book a return ticket?
Whatever reason and wherever you are headed to, if you want to process the PTA in Nigeria, you need a valid return ticket.(even persons with study visa who could stay for a longer period needed a return ticket to process, so i don't get what you on about visit or stay). And I suppose even if you had a visa that permits you to stay, if you needed a PTA for your trip, you needed to provide your financial institution with a valid return ticket....




A visit visa requires a Return Ticket

A PTA requires a Return ticket

Thanks
Thanks

Congratulations!!! Your story is a testimony. Make sure that you use the visa well well oh which is roughly equivalent to 10 times that of 6 months application fees. 10 years is not application fee is not cheap!

I did 5 years after weighing that my visits to the UK has reduced drastically coupled with covid, no free accommodation and may not visit more than once in a year. Had visa UK issued in March 2022, yet to use it. Anyway enjoy your trip.

Hello everyone, please is anyone having issue with UK visa page? Payment was made on Tuesday for Visitor visa application, bank deducted their money on Wednesday but up till today is still showing payment pending.

I called UK visa customer service here in the UK but the lady doesn't really know the process. She just told me to wait and gave me a reference number. What do you think I can do. The applicant is from Nigeria. Kindly assist if you have experienced this before. Thank you

And do you think she needs to do TB test as she will be frequent traveler and may stay up to 5month?

Thanks. I called a couple today and none would answer the call. I know daily fluctuations are bound, I just want to be sure about them accepting local currency @ bank rate.

Hi peeps! Does anyone knows if foreign airlines allows payment in local currency? If so, what rate are they using? I heard sometime back that they’ll start receiving fares in USD. I’m interested in Turkish, Qatar, Virgin, & BA. I’ve also have noticed that, return flights from Abuja is about 30% cheaper than Lagos. Anyone here please?

Oma6090:
Please what kind of questions do they ask at the port of entry to the UK.
My mum is coming, I would like to know the possible questions they might ask her. In her application we stated she will be staying 1 month. But she intend spending longer time here
