Expert Legal Support to Help You Start Your Life Together in the UK

A UK Fiancé(e) Visa allows an engaged couple to live in the UK so they can marry or enter a civil partnership. At LexHavenLaw, our experienced immigration solicitors provide clear, practical, and supportive legal advice to help you prepare a strong application and avoid unnecessary delays or refusals.

Whether you are applying from outside the UK or planning your next steps after arrival, we guide you through every stage of the process.

What Is a UK Fiancé(e) Visa?

A UK Fiancé(e) Visa allows a non-UK national to enter the UK for up to six months to marry or form a civil partnership with a British citizen or a person settled in the UK.

This visa does not allow employment during the initial six-month period. After the marriage or civil partnership takes place, the applicant must apply to switch to a Spouse or Partner Visa from within the UK.

Who Can Apply for a Fiancé(e) Visa?

You may be eligible if:

  • You are engaged to a British citizen or a person settled in the UK

  • You intend to marry or enter a civil partnership within six months

  • Your relationship is genuine and subsisting

  • You meet the financial, accommodation, and English language requirements

Applications must meet all Home Office requirements to be approved.
