Visitors to the UK from the Philippines

There was a vast increase in the number of tourist and business visitors over the previous year. This was due to a number of factors. Since the EU lifted the ban on Philippine Airlines flights over EU airspace, a direct service from Manila to London is again in place.

Getting a visa is easy; according to a UK government statement, over 90% of all visa applications from Filipinos are approved. And to handle the increased demand for visas a number of improvements to visa services within the Philippines have been made, including:

  • A larger Visa Application Centre in Manila with better facilities
  • An international visa enquiry centre
  • An additional Visa Application Centre in Cebu city
  • A premium lounge with personalised and streamlined service
  • Optional priority service with a 3-5 day turnaround
  • Prime time service offering out-of-hours appointments
