  • Visa application fees

    UK visa application fees are payable in UAE Dirhams. Payment must be in cash and can only be paid when you submit your application at the visa application centre.

    Dependants are charged the same fee as the main applicant. All dependants who are travelling must pay the fee whether or not they are included in the main applicant's passport.

    The visa application fee reflects the administrative costs of processing an application and is not refundable if your application is refused. If a payment has been made and the application is not submitted or if the applicant does not provide their biometric details with their application, then we will refund the fee.

    These fees are effective for all visa applications made from 4 March 2010.

    The consular rate of exchange is AED 6.0. Please note the visa fees are subject to change.
