Can you enter UK later than intended date of travel on the visa application?

Can you enter UK later than intended date of travel on the visa application? - Bridge over River in City

If I apply in December to travel in March, and I am granted the visa, what happens if something comes up (emergency, work etc.) and I have to postpone the trip?

Will I still be allowed to enter the UK, even if I arrive after my intended travel dates?



Best Answer

You are asking about this page of the application form...

enter image description here

This is strictly indicative information that they use to help understand the other parts of your application. It has no other value once a visa has been issued.

The actual start and end dates of your visa are printed on the visa itself and travel between those dates (inclusively) is fine.


NOTE: if the form you are filling out does NOT look like the one above, then you are filling out the wrong form. For the remainder of 2017, the starting page for a Standard Visitor Visa is at https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/product/uk-visit-visa
