A UK Visit Visa is a short-term visa granted for purposes such as tourism, business visits, attending events, or visiting family and friends. It is intended for individuals who wish to stay in the UK temporarily and do not plan to work or settle there. The visa can be issued for a duration ranging from 6 months up to 10 years, depending on the applicant’s requirements and the time period of the visa fee paid, rather than mere availability. Multiple entries are usually permitted during its validity period.
