Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what discussions she has had with her Peruvian counterpart on the availability of visas for Peruvians who would like to travel to the UK.
Visas are a subject of regular discussion between the UK and the Peruvian Governments. Standard visit visa applications for Peruvians are currently taking on average six weeks to process, with some delays occurring due to the number of applications that were on hold during the pandemic. Peruvians wishing to apply for a visa to visit the UK can do so up to three months ahead of their travel.
