visa

When China first announced a new visa targeting foreign professionals in science and technology in August it largely went unnoticed.

Reform UK has announced it would replace indefinite leave to remain with visas requiring migrants - including non-EU nationals who already have the status - to reapply every five years.

A source clarified to E! that Urban was absent from his appointment due to his tour, adding that “it’s mandatory for applicants to be physically present in order to apply for the visa.”

A pro-democracy campaigner who fled Hong Kong has been denied entry to Singapore despite being granted a visa, with the city-state saying his presence "would not be in national interests".

Meanwhile, the US and the UK both charge travel authorisation or visa fees for foreign nationals to visit them.
