Landing card in UK ?

Post by engarmani » Sun May 26, 2019 7:52 pm

Hi all,

Is it required to fill the landing card when passing the UK immigration border if someone comes on visitor visa from EEA country.

I read that its going to implement very soon but want to know if its implemented or not.

Thanks,
EA

As a non-EU national you currently have to fill in a card anyway.
Not sure what you are referring to but the UK Border Force will be phasing out landing cards ....
This is just my opinion as a member of this forum and does not constitute immigration advice.
Please do not send me private messages asking for advice.

The requirement (or otherwise) for filling in a landing card is based on the passport that you use to enter the UK, not the country that the flight originates in.
