UK multiple entry tourist visa expiry and duration of final stay.

[ExpatNP]

My wife's UK ME Tourist visa expires on the 9th of October and we have a wedding to go to in the UK in late August.

 

If she enters the UK on the 20th of August, for how long is she allowed to stay?

 

Until the 9th of October or 180 days from entry?

 

Thanks in advance.

She needs to leave the UK on or before the expiry date of her visa.

‘So it’s different than the Thailand METV.

The Thai expiry date on the METV visa is the last date you can enter Thailand and you still get 60 days or more before exiting.

Yes, the rules in Thailand are very different to most other countries.

 'This type of visa will allow for multiple entries during the specified time period without needing to apply for a new visa for each trip. However, each stay in the UK must not exceed the stay specified on the visa'.

 

So, how many days does your wife's visa specify? Therein you have your answer.

Not that simple I’m afraid, whilst the Visa does give the maximum duration of stay permitted, it also shows the expiry date of the visa, it’s that date which the visa holder must leave the UK by.
