The UK Fiancé(e) Visa allows individuals to enter the UK to marry or enter a civil partnership with their British or settled partner within six months of arrival. It’s the first step toward building a life together in the UK and transitioning into a long-term Spouse or Partner Visa.
The Fiancé(e) Visa is for non-UK nationals engaged to a British citizen or a person with Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) or settled status in the UK. This visa allows entry for up to 6 months, during which time the couple must get married or register a civil partnership.
Key requirements include:
Genuine Relationship – Proof of a real and ongoing relationship, including intent to marry within 6 months.
Financial Requirement – The UK-based partner must meet a minimum income threshold of £29,000 (as of April 2024), or meet savings criteria.
English Language Requirement – The applicant must demonstrate basic English proficiency through an approved test or academic qualification.
Accommodation – Adequate housing must be available without recourse to public funds.
The Fiancé(e) Visa does not permit employment. After marriage or civil partnership, applicants can apply from within the UK to switch to a Spouse or Partner Visa, which allows work and leads to settlement.
