(18 December 2024)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what steps she is taking to support people applying for visas in the West Bank.

Asked by:
Dr Simon Opher (Labour)

Answer

Currently, anyone who wishes to come to the UK can do so via the existing range of routes available. The Visa Application Centre in Ramallah is open and operating as normal.

Any application for a UK visa will be assessed against the requirements of the Immigration Rules.

We will accept applications, which would normally have to be made in the country where the person is living, at any of the UK’s Visa Application Centres.

Visa Application Centres are also available in the wider region in Egypt, in both Cairo and Alexandria, and Amman in Jordan.
