Applying for Commonwealth Countries Visa through UK embassy

Applying for Commonwealth Countries Visa through UK embassy - Green Leaf Plant Beside River

I am visiting the Bahamas for a holiday. Since the Bahamas is part of Commonwealth countries. I was told that I could apply for a Bahamas Visa on Visa4Uk site, as there's an option to apply for Commonwealth countries' Visas. However, I can't find that option. I think it's because the Visa4Uk site has just been updated. Can anyone suggest another way to apply through the UK embassy?

How to apply

If you are travelling to one of the 6 British Overseas Territories or 3 Commonwealth countries listed, and there is no local representation to apply for your visa, you must complete and submit a UK visa application form online and select the reason for visit as ‘other’ and the visa type as ‘Overseas Territory & Commonwealth’ to proceed. https://www.gov.uk/standard-visitor-visa/apply
