The difference between a group visa and an individual visa in the UK

The difference between the two is that they have different application processes, different applicable groups, and different application procedures.

The application process is different: for group visas, you need to fill in the team application form and provide the team members’ passports, visa photos, employment certificates, accommodation certificates and other materials. You also need to provide the team leader’s visa application form and professional certificate, etc. ; For individual visa, you only need to provide your personal passport, visa photo, employment certificate, accommodation certificate and other materials.

Applicable groups are different: group visa is suitable for tourist groups, business groups or student groups of 10 or more people; individual visa is suitable for people who want to travel to the UK alone.

The application procedures are different: the group visa application procedure is more complicated, and more documents are required to prove the purpose and itinerary of the entire team's trip, and detailed personal information is required; the individual visa application procedure is relatively simple. Just fill in the application form, upload personal documents and pay the visa fee.
