U.K. Immigration Healthcare Surcharge (IHS)

Post by shankez » Mon Jun 17, 2019 5:07 pm

Hi There,

My mother has a 10 year visitor visa and would like to add the U.K. Immigration Healthcare Surcharge (IHS) added when she visits me to the U.K. Does anyone know how to go about adding IHS to her existing visa please?

You can't. IHS is not applicable or payable for visitor visas.

She will need travel insurance and will have to pay for NHS use at 150% cost.

This is not a general discussion topic. Post your questions in an existing topic you have or start your own thread.

Members are also not permitted to name details of companies on the forum. You will need to find insurance relevant to the travelers circumstances. You should have got travel insurance before she came to the UK to visit.
