This page hosts the Application Forms & the supporting Checklists required for your Visa Application. Please make sure that before completing your application you have read clearly the Important Information for Visa Applicants.

Please make sure your application form is supported by all documents listed in the checklist below:

Note "If your sponsor already has a visa and is established in the UK then, in addition to the above, you will need to show evidence of their current status there. You should provide a certified copy of their passport showing all the pages."

The recent High Court ruling in the UK resulting from the Highly Skilled Forum Judicial Review affects certain people who formerly had leave in the UK under the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP). You may be covered by this ruling if you joined HSMP under the arrangements which were in place until the scheme was suspended on 7 November 2006 and you either:

a) Applied for and were refused further leave to remain under the new extension rules which came into force on 5 December 2006, and subsequently left the UK, or
b) Left the UK after 7 November 2006 without ever applying for further leave to remain under the new rules.

A policy document which explains in detail who is affected by the ruling is available on the UK Border Agency website

Forms and Guidance

Guidance on making and assessing applications under the HSMP Judicial Review judgement is available on the Visa Services website.

The standard PBS form (VAF 9) and Appendix 1(Tier 1- General) have been expanded to allow them to be used by HSMP Forum JR applicants in both categories, ie (a) and (b).

Making your application

Applications in both categories should be made at the appropriate visa section or VAC in the usual way. Category (a) applicants will not be charged a fee;
category (b) applicants should pay the standard Tier 1 (General) fee.

Visitors Note:

1) If you are a Malaysian passport holder going to the UK for less then 6 months, you do not need to apply for a visit visa unless you have had any previous immigration problems However you will still need to satisfy the immigration official upon arrival in the UK that you are a genuine visitor.

2) If you are a non-Malaysian without any long term visa status in Malaysia you should wait until you return to your home country or the country where you are normally resident in order to make your application.

3) If you are a third country national with a long term Malaysian visa, then you can make your application in Kuala Lumpur. However, please note that there may be some delay in processing your application as the British High Commission may need to refer one of your documentation to your country of origin/ habitual residence.
