Do I need a multiple entry visa for a trip UK -> Sweden -> UK?












6















My wife and I are travelling to the UK. We are visiting a friend staying over for three nights. We then leave for Sweden for twelve days coming back to the UK via Scotland for 2nights. Do we need a multiple entry visa or do we just fill out the standard visa application?

Unfortunately it will remain true only until Brexit is going to happen. Afterwards you'll most probably need separate visas for UK and Sweden.

    @Ister I am afraid your comment is based on false premise - UK is not (and for a long time not been, if not never) in the Schengen zone due to the opt-out negotiated.

I would mention the entire itinerary at the first possible moment in the application, so as to reduce the possibility of being given a single-entry visa. But do note that depending on your nationality you might not need a visa at all, and that also depending on your nationality, you might need a visa for Sweden. If you do need a visa for Sweden, you will have to apply for that separately.

The UK Standard Visitor visa is always issued as a multiple entry visa valid for 6 months, unless UKVI see a compelling reason to curtail the number of entries or validity period. Just provide the dates you plan to be in the UK in the application.



Edit: When completing the application I would provide the initial date of arrival and the final exit date in the ’Travel information’ section of the application. In the ‘Accommodation details’ section you can then enter your specific UK travel plan dates, and the address(es) where you’ll be staying if known. You can also use the ‘Extra information’ section at the end of the application to explain your plan to visit Sweden from the UK.

    I'm guessing that you do not have a European passport and that you do not have visa exemption from either of these countries. In that case you will need a visa for the UK and another (Schengen) visa for Sweden. You're flying direct between the UK and Sweden I assume?



    The UK has never been a part of the Schengen scheme.

Bunad (frå kledebunad , der norrønt «búnaðr» har same rot som (føre)bu) er ei samnemning brukt om klesdrakter i tradisjonell nordisk stil — ofte utvikla frå folkedrakter, men likevel i ein eigen tradisjon. Ein bunad er typisk ei forseggjort og kostbar drakt, med mykje broderi, og med handsmidde smykke i gull eller sølv, særleg dei særeigne søljene, som obligatorisk prynad i tillegg.

Átak var gert í að varðveita hestinn og eru nú til 70-80 hross í Færeyjum. [1] Heimild |   Wikimedia Commons er með margmiðlunarefni sem te
