A fiancé visa allows the fiancé, fiancée or prospective civil partner of a permanent resident of the UK to enter the country.
A fiancé visa gives you permission to stay in the UK for up to 6 months, during
which you are not permitted to take up any work.
After you have married or registered your civil partnership, you may apply to stay
in the UK on a
marriage visa,
which gives you permission to live and work in the UK for up to 2 years.
To be eligible for a fiancé visa you must:
- be the fiancé, fiancée or prospective civil partner of a permanent resident of the
UK.
- have met.
- plan to marry or register your civil partnership within 6 months of coming to the
UK.
- plan to live together after you have married or registered your civil partnership.
- have support and accommodation for yourself and any dependants without using public
funds.
