From 13 February 2012, all applications for a UK visa must be completed and paid for in US dollars using our online application system. The revised visa fees will be available on this site from Monday 13 February.
Those applying online from 13 February must pay the visa fee in US dollars. Payment must be made online before going to one of our 5 visa application centres in Russia to submit a printed copy of the application form and biometric data (fingerprints and photograph).
Applicants should read and follow the on screen instructions when completing their application and paying the fee.
If you completed your application online before 13 February we will continue to accept cash payments in Roubles at our application centres until 29 February 2012. After this date applicants will have to re-apply and pay their fee online.
