UK Launches E-Visas: Apply, Benefits, Changes

The UK rolls out eVisas from February 25, replacing physical visa stickers with fully digital records linked to passports. Applicants submit online forms, visit a visa application centre once for biometrics, and receive their passports back the same day, eliminating weeks of waiting. eVisas confirm visa types like tourist or student status through a UKVI account, accessible via mobile for easy verification.
