The centres previous operated by VFS have closed, and Teleperformance has opened five new centres run in the same cities; Moscow, St Petersburg, Ekaterinburg, Rostov on Don and Novosibirsk.

UKVI has made arrangements for passports submitted at the VFS VACs to be returned to the new Teleperformance VACs.
