Breaking News: Apply for Your UK Visa at Your Nearest Hotel! 
In a ground breaking move to simplify and streamline the UK visa application process for 
Indian travellers, VFS Global has joined forces with two prominent hospitality giants, the 
Radisson Hotel Group and the Indian Hotels Company (owned by Tata), to offer a 
convenient and accessible solution. UK visa applicants can now rejoice, as they have the 
option to apply for their UK visas from the comfort and convenience of their nearest hotel. 
Seamless Application Process 
The collaboration between VFS Global, Radisson Hotel Group, and the Indian Hotels 
Company aims to revolutionize the UK visa application experience by making it more 
accessible and hassle-free. This innovative approach allows individuals to submit their UK 
visa applications at hotels near them, drastically reducing the time and effort required for 
the application process. 
Locations Across India 
For the residents of Visakhapatnam, Bengaluru, and Mangalore, this partnership brings 
even more convenience. Applicants from these cities can now submit their UK visa 
applications at the closest Hotel. The Vedanta in Bengaluru and Mangalore, as well as The 
Gateway Hotel in Visakhapatnam, have already started offering these services, with more 
locations expected to join in the future. 
Easy Eligibility Check 
To determine your eligibility for a UK visa, you can utilize the UK Visas and 
Immigration points calculator. This tool allows you to assess your eligibility quickly and 
efficiently, ensuring that you meet the necessary requirements before proceeding with your 
application.

efficient. It typically takes up to 240 days to secure an interview slot after submitting an 
online visa application. Additionally, the biometric booking for the visa can be rescheduled 
up to 24 hours before the appointment and rearranged multiple times if necessary, offering 
flexibility to applicants. 
In 2022, a staggering 2,836,490 UK visas were issued to Indians, with an additional 138,532 
UK-sponsored study visas granted in the year ending March 2023. This highlights the 
growing demand for UK visas among Indian travellers, making this collaboration between 
VFS Global and leading hotel chains a timely and welcome development. 
Whether you're planning a vacation, pursuing higher education, or exploring job 
opportunities in the UK, the convenience of applying for your UK visa at a nearby hotel is set 
to make the process smoother and more accessible than ever before. This initiative is a 
testament to the commitment of VFS Global, Radisson Hotel Group, and the Indian Hotels 
Company to provide exceptional service to Indian travellers heading to the United Kingdom.
