The UK Border Agency is the official UK Government authority providing information and guidance for visa applicants and for making decisions on visa applications for the United Kingdom.  

We operate through the following official websites:

• UK Border Agency corporate website: www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk
• UK Border Agency Visa Services website: www.ukvisas.gov.uk 
• UK Border Agency Online Application Service (Visa4UK): www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk
• Local websites operated by our commercial partners, CSC Worldbridge and VFS Global, and British Embassies, High Commissions and Consulates around the world.

We would advise you to avoid all other websites claiming to be in partnership with the UK Border Agency as they may be operating illegally. Please notify us if you come across such websites.
