UK visit visa extension before entering the UK - Brown Dragon Statue in White Background

My parents have a UK visit visa, which expires on November 11, 2018. They have never entered the UK. Is it possible to extend the visa under such circumstances?



Best Answer

There would seem to be no reason to extend a visa whose holder is not inside the UK. Just apply for a new visa in the regular way.
