Online bank statement for a UK visit visa
I'm applying for a UK visit visa. I have an account in a UK bank. Should this bank statement be stamped by the bank? And is it accepted as an online paper? Because it takes time to deliver to my country.

Should this bank statement be stamped by the bank?
The UK supporting documents guide states:
All documents must be originals and not photocopies.
This applies to your bank statements as well and the best option is to provide the originals and not the downloaded version to be absolutely safe. Having said that, I have not seen an application being rejected citing the reason: "Online bank statements are not accepted" and I know a lot of people who have supplied the printed version of bank statements with the visa application.
The important thing to note is that you have good savings and you should be able to provide the evidence of the source of funds.
