Online payment for UK visa to be introduced in Rwanda
From 16 December 2013, all applications for a UK visa must be completed using our online application system and may be paid for online.
Payment can be made using Visa or MasterCard credit or debit cards. Payment in cash will remain an option until further notice.
The move to online application and payments will deliver a streamlined application process and is consistent with a wider global trend to online transactions and payments. It meets the requirements of the UK Government’s Digital by Default initiative and will help cut costs in the management of the visas operation, which in turn helps to keep visa fees down.
It will also be a safer system for both customers and staff as it reduces the risk associated with handling large amounts of cash during the visa application process.
