UK Outlines How Nigerians Can Set Up and Access Their eVisas

The UK has outlined how visa holders can access their electronic immigration status, known as an eVisa, as it moves from physical documents to digital records. UK Visas and Immigration shared the guidance on Monday. Applicants should first apply for a UK visa and wait for a decision. If approved, they can create a UKVI account, verify their identity using the UK Immigration: ID Check app, and link the account to their eVisa. Once the eVisa is ready, holders can sign in to check their immigration details and generate a share code when needed, such as when proving their right to work or rent accommodation. They should add their passport or travel document details to the account before travelling. Existing visa stickers remain valid until their expiry dates. Some biometric residence card holders may also still be able to use their cards in certain situations.
