The UK immigration system is switching from physical visas to eVisas, starting Wednesday. Q: What happens to an applicant’s passport? If the UK eVisa is approved in time, they can check it online and enter the UK from another country. A: With an eVisa, applicants only need to attend the VAC once to confirm their identity. They will be asked to create a UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account to access their eVisa.
