Transit Visa for LONDON, UK

[arjun96]

Hi,

Has anyone recently travelled to India via London (UK) and if Transit Visa is required ?

Responses appreciated.

Thanks,
Arjun

This has been discussed to death..
Indian citizens require a transit visa for London if they DO NOT have a valid visa to US, Canada or other European countries. Advance Parole is not considered a visa and therefore those travelling on AP will require a transit visa.

nkm-oct23,

I know that this question has been discussed to death, but again with the current immigration laws changing virtually very often, it is a good idea to get a first hand feedback from recently travelled folks and instead just taking things for granted.

Thanks, anyway.

Traveling through London is a big hassle . Try to avoid London by traveling non stop flights like Kuwait or Emirates .
