Document checklist for your route and situation

Pick the visa and your circumstances. The generator lists what to collect with the Indian document names, grouped the way a case officer reads a file.

Questions

Questions about this tool

Do documents need to be attested or apostilled?

No. UK visa applications take plain scans of originals. Documents not in English need a certified translation with the translator's details and a statement that it is accurate.

Can I add documents after submitting?

You can upload until your biometrics appointment. After that, only if UKVI writes to ask. Prepare the full file before you pay.

What is the most common missing document for Indian students?

A bank statement that covers the full 28 days with no dip, dated within 31 days of the application. The second is the TB certificate from an approved clinic.
