How long can I stay in the UK on a tourist visa?

Since January 2016, tourists from China will be able to enjoy a multiple-entry British visitor visa valid for 2 years and with a stay period of 180 days. If you can postpone your trip, you need to make an appointment. If you need to change the appointment time, you need to make an appointment 24 hours in advance. You do not need to follow the submitted itinerary, but you must ensure that you leave the country within the validity period of your visa.

When going to the UK, you should correctly interpret the British visa information. Pay special attention to the validity period of the British visa. It refers to the length of stay in the UK and not the time limit for entry. The holder must leave the UK before the visa expires, otherwise it will constitute illegal stay. . If for some reason you are unable to come to the UK within the validity period of your visa, you must apply for a new visa to avoid travel trouble.
