In order to enter the country you want to go to when you go abroad, you need two main points; first one passport, and the second one is if it is one of the countries that require a visa from Turkey. I get a lot of questions about Schengen and UK visas, especially when entering Europe. Me too UK visa I wanted to collect what needs to be done for the application.
UK Visa Procedures
He works with a brokerage firm for UK visa applications: World Brigde. You have to apply here with the documents, but first you need to complete the necessary application procedures on the UK website.
Requirements for a UK visa application, respectively:
- You must apply for the visa online. You can reach the application page at http://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/ApplyNow.aspx.
- You can pay the visa application fee online and only in USD.
- After the online application, your application number (must start with GWF) will be sent to your e-mail address.
- Ankara, Bursa, Gaziantep, Istanbul ve İzmirYou should make an appointment for one of the visa application centers in Turkey.
- You do not print out and sign the application documents you submit online.
- The intermediary firm will take your biometric photo and take your fingerprint.
- You can get your passport and application documents from the agent you applied for within 2-3 weeks, or they are sent to your address by courier. There is a note on their website that says apply 3 months ago, but mine was out in 10 days. Apply as early as possible so you don't risk it anyway.

England also has a Fast Track application, if you have entered one of the UK countries or the Schengen area in the last 5 years, you are considered as Fast Track and your application is processed very quickly. I came across this by chance (I realized that there was such a thing when I went to the world bridge office) and I was able to get my visa before 48 hours including cargo.
hi, i had a schengen visa which expired last year. This is the first time I've heard of something called fast track. Is there anything we need to do other than the normal application?
Schengen and UK visa have nothing to do with each other, fast track is just to speed up the process.
Can you explain the fast track thing a little more? I went in and out 4 years ago and I want to go again this summer. How can I take advantage of the fast track event?
No, you are just doing what you have to do as standard. As I said, if you have obtained a Schengen or UK visa in the last 5 years, they will evaluate the application faster.
It was a good article, I was going to start visa procedures next week, it came across well..
I am so glad it worked for you.
