from 01 July 2015.
The new scheme means visitors from China will be able to obtain a visa for both the UK and the Schengen area – of which the UK is not a part – without having to visit two different application centres.
The new process will be introduced as a pilot scheme at the UK’s Beijing, Guangzhou and Shanghai visa application centres and will be available from 1 July.
A similar service was introduced earlier this year for UK/Ireland visas
