What Is an Unmarried Partner Visa UK?

The UK Unmarried Partner visa allows individuals in a long-term, committed relationship with a British citizen or settled person to join their partner in the UK.

Unlike a spouse visa, it doesn't require marriage, but it does require proof that your relationship is genuine, has lasted at least two years, and is akin to a marriage or civil partnership in terms of commitment.

To qualify, your relationship must be:

• Genuine and subsisting, similar in nature to a marriage or civil partnership.
• At least two years long before the date of your application.
• Supported by clear evidence of commitment, communication, and shared responsibilities.

Requirements for an Unmarried Partner Visa in 2025

To qualify for a UK Unmarried Partner visa, you must:

• Be 18 or over.
• Be in a genuine, subsisting relationship with your partner.
• Have been together for at least two years (though cohabitation is no longer mandatory, it helps strengthen your case).
• Have met in person.
• Intend to live together permanently in the UK.
• Show that any previous relationships have permanently ended.
• Meet the financial requirement, either through income, savings, or a combination of both.
• Meet the adequate accommodation requirement.
• Satisfy the English language requirement, usually by passing an approved test or showing you're exempt.
• Pass tuberculosis (TB) test, if applicable.

Our unmarried partner visa solicitors in London can help you meet these requirements, prepare your evidence, and submit a strong visa application.

UK Unmarried Partner Visa Document Checklist 2025

The success of your UK Unmarried Partner visa application heavily relies on the documents you provide. Failure to provide all documents and evidence in the correct format may lead to the refusal or delay of your visa.
