These centres are run by a commercial partner, VFS Global and are located in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Chandigarh, Chennai, Cohin, Hyderabad, Jalandhar, Kolkata, New Delhi, North Mumbai, Pune and South Mumbai. Do be aware that this commercial partner is only there to collect the visa application forms and supporting documents as well as collecting biometric finger scans the visa application fee. These partners are not involved in any part of the decision-making process. The documents that you are required to supply vary depending on whether you are applying for a points-based or non points-based system.
These documents vary again in coordination to the categories within these systems. The best way to determine what documents are needed in your specific circumstances is to research the UK Visa website. The supporting documentation page can be found at www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/vafs/vafsdocschecklist/ Through this website you can also find contact details if you need to speak to someone for help with your application.
All applications will require original documents alongside photocopies, this also includes your passport photograph and information page. It is important to make sure that any photocopies are clear and can be read easily. If you cannot submit original copies of the document then you will need to obtain a certified copy from the issuing authority. Failing to provide all of the necessary original and photocopied documents can lead to your application being delayed or even refused. If any of your documents are not originally written in English it will be necessary to provide a translation. These translations must be dated, include the translators name and signature and provide information that is an accurate translation of the document and the translator’s contact details.
