The temporary visa application service is provided annually to assist all Maldivians who apply for long-term UK visas, especially the students who travel to the United Kingdom for further studies. The government is hopeful that this arrangement would ease the difficulties Maldivians face while applying for Visas in the UK and encourage all to make the best use of this opportunity.

The Government of Maldives is also grateful for the Government of United Kingdom for providing this service in the Maldives.
