The visa policy of the United Kingdom is the policy by which His Majesty's Government determines visa requirements for visitors to the United Kingdom, and the Crown dependencies of Guernsey, Jersey, and the Isle of Man and those seeking to work, study or reside there.
All visitors must obtain a visa from one of the British diplomatic missions unless they are citizens of one of the visa exempt countries (including members of the United Kingdom), or citizens who may obtain an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA).
The UK operates its own visa policy and maintains the Common Travel Area with the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man.[1]
British Overseas Territories generally apply their own similar but legally distinct visa policies.
