Transit visa London Heathrow needed? [duplicate]

If you have a Venezuelan passport, and if you have a Belgium residence permit and are married to a Dutch man, do you need a transit visa when you change planes in London on your return trip to Amsterdam? UK border check will be done in between flights.

If I check the government site, I think it is not necessary because of the Belgium residence permit. Am I right? It's not all clear to me.

Best Answer

No, with a Belgian residence permit, you don't need a visa, even if you have to collect and re-check luggage.
