If you are travelling to a place outside British territories you may need to apply for an entry visa from the country's consulate or embassy. The Foreign Office website lists contact details of foreign embassies in the UK. Some countries have websites with visa information - so, for example, the United States Embassy website has details of who needs a visa to travel to the US. A visa waiver scheme applies to British citizens visiting the USA. Current countries requiring British citizens to hold a valid visa include China, India, Russia, Turkey and Egypt. For the latest information on your destination, please check with that country’s consulate or embassy.
If you are a British dependent territories citizen, British overseas citizen, British subject, British national overseas, or a British protected person, you may need to apply for a visa that is not required by British citizens.
It is the responsibility of the individual to apply themselves and the cost of visas are not included in any NST prices.
We recommend that all visa requirements are completed at least 2 months prior to departure.
