eVisa Update!

eVisas will replace all visa stickers in 2026

From 12 January, most people granted a visit visa, and some other visa types will be told that they will get an eVisa as well as a visa sticker.

Most people with a valid UK visa sticker that was issued before 12 January will also be able to access their eVisa through their UKVI account.

Later in 2026, UKVI will stop issuing visa stickers. All successful applicants will only get an eVisa.

Sole Responsibility vs Sole Custody – What’s the Difference?

Many UK visa applications are refused because of confusion between sole custody and sole responsibility.

Sole Custody – a court order giving one parent full custody.
Sole Responsibility – an immigration concept showing who actually makes the key decisions in a child’s life (education, health, welfare).

The Home Office looks at who truly takes responsibility, not just what’s written on paper.

Refusals often happen when:
• Custody orders are used without proof of daily involvement
• There’s no evidence of financial or emotional responsibility

At LSS Legal, we know the law and ensure your application clearly proves sole responsibility with the right evidence and legal support.

Contact LSS Legal today for expert help in all UK immigration matters we help you get it right the first time.

Upcoming UK Immigration Rule Changes – Action Required

From 16 December 2025, and from 8 January 2026, key changes will take effect that impact employers sponsoring overseas workers and the applicants themselves.

What’s changing:

• From 16 December 2025: The employer levy known as the Immigration Skills Charge (ISC) will increase. See the regulations: Immigration Skills Charge (Amendment) Regulations 2025 (coming into force 16 Dec 2025) 

• From 8 January 2026: The English-language requirement for new applicants under the Skilled Worker visa and other routes will rise from CEFR level B1 to B2. See: Skilled Worker visa Knowledge of English 

What we recommend:
• Employers: Review any upcoming certificate of sponsorship (CoS) assignments if you can assign before 16 Dec 2025, you may benefit from the current (lower) ISC rate.

• Applicants / candidates: If you will apply under the routes affected by the English requirement, check your English test status now and whether you meet B2 (or can get there).

• Organisations: Update your internal workflows (HR, recruitment, global mobility) to reflect these dates and requirements.

• For tailored advice or scenario review, reach out to us at LSS Legal.

UK Ends Visa Vignette Stickers from 30 October 2025

From 30 October 2025, applicants for UK work, study, family and Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) visas will no longer receive a physical vignette sticker in their passport after approval.
Instead, the Home Office will issue a digital eVisa, which you can access through a UKVI online account.

What this means for applicants
• No more passport stickers your visa status will be held digitally.
• You must create a UKVI account and link your passport to view and use your eVisa.
• Employers, landlords and airlines will check your status online instead of relying on a physical document.
• If you already hold a vignette or BRP, your permission remains valid, but you will be encouraged to switch to an eVisa.

Why the change?
The UK is moving toward a fully digital immigration system faster, secure, and paper-free.
