Hello, My relatives were granted 10 year long term VISIT visas for the UK a few weeks ago. Does anyone know if there is a prescribed time limit from the date of issue within which the first entry has to be made? i.e any stipulation for the first entry within say 3 months or 6 months from the date of issue? There is nothing mentioned on the visa as such. I ask because they may have to delay their planned immediate arrival.

I don't see this being an issue however, Your relatives must have mentioned on the application form intended date of travel, any particular reason why they wont be traveling close to that date?
