WHO WE ARE
Independent UK visa support, run from Dubai.
Stanford Global Visa Services helps residents of the UAE prepare and submit UK visa applications — visitor, study and transit. One fixed support charge of AED 400, quoted before you commit.
What Stanford does
- Check which UK visa fits your plans and tell you if a route does not look workable.
- Prepare your documents list and review what you have before anything is submitted.
- Complete the UKVI online application with you, in your name.
- Book your biometrics appointment at the VFS Global centre in Dubai or Abu Dhabi.
- Give you a Stanford-branded checklist you can download and work through.
What Stanford does not do
- We do not decide applications. UK Visas & Immigration makes every decision.
- We do not promise approvals, and we do not publish approval rates.
- We are not part of, endorsed by or affiliated with the UK government or VFS Global.
- We do not take payment for government fees through this website.
How the money works
Three costs stay separate so you always know who is being paid. Our support charge is AED 400. The UK government visa fee is paid to UKVI in pounds, with an indicative AED figure shown alongside for budgeting only. Standard biometrics at VFS Global in Dubai or Abu Dhabi is included; optional VFS priority services cost extra and are confirmed on the VFS booking page.
Who we help
People living in Dubai and the wider UAE who want a clear, honest path to a UK visit, study or transit visa — without guessing which forms, translations or evidence are needed. Every question is answered by a person, not a template.
