    This section explains how you can transit through the UK when travelling to another country. It also explains the documents that you will need to bring with you.
    If you pass through the UK without staying here on the way to another country, this is called 'transiting'.
    There are two types of transit through the UK:

    • You will transit airside if you arrive on a flight, remain in the arrival lounge of the airport without passing through immigration control, and then depart on another flight from the same airport.
    • You will transit landside if you arrive on a flight, pass through immigration control and then leave the UK within 48 hours (or 24 hours if you are travelling under the 'travel without visa' concession).
    If you want to spend longer than 48 hours in the UK before continuing your journey, you must come to the UK as a visitor. The Visiting the UK section contains more information.
    Whether you are transiting airside or landside, you may need to obtain a UK visa before you begin your journey.:yes:

    You transit the UK airside if you arrive here on a flight, remain in the arrival lounge of the airport without passing through UK immigration control, and then depart on another flight from the same airport.
    The UK government operates a DATV system for some countries. These countries are listed under 'More information' below.
    You can transit the UK airside without a visa if:

    • you are a national of a country that is not in the list below; or
    • you are recognised as stateless under the 1954 UN Convention relating to the Status of Stateless Persons;
    • You hold a valid travel document issued by the UK government
    • You are a DATV national or recognised as stateless under the 1951 UN Refugee Convention and qualify for the DATV exemption under the 'transit without visa' concession - see under 'More information' below.
    If you do not meet any of the above requirements, you must get a direct airside transit visa before you can transit the UK airside.
    You cannot transit the UK airside if you are on your way to or from the Republic of Ireland, the Channel Islands or the Isle of Man.
    How to apply for a direct airside transit visa

    Depending on the country where you live, you may need to make your application online or using application form VAF6.
    To find out which application method you should use, see 'More information' below.
    You can download application form VAF6 and its guidance notes from the right side of this page.

    As part of your application, you will need to enrol your fingerprints and facial image (known as 'biometric information') at a visa application centre.
    Select your country in our country finder to find out:

    • how to apply in your country (including how to apply online);
    • the location of our visa application centres;
    • how long we generally take to process visa applications; and
    • how your documents will be returned to you.:yes:

    You transit landside if you arrive on a flight, pass through immigration control and then leave the UK within 48 hours (or 24 hours if you are travelling under the 'travel without visa' concession - see below).
    Nationals of some countries are known as 'visa nationals', because they will normally require a visa to come to the UK. These countries are listed under 'More information' below.
    You can transit the UK landside without a visa if:

    • you are not a visa national; or
    • you hold a valid travel document issued by the UK government; or
    • you are a visa national or recognised as 'stateless' and meet the 'transit without visa concession - see under 'More information' below.
    If you do not meet any of these requirements (because you are a visa national or stateless, and you do not qualify for the transit without visa concession), you will need to apply for:

    Sri Lanka is covered by DATV so no need for airside transit visa
