Tuberculosis test - UK Spouse Visa

Post by NataliaB » Mon Aug 23, 2021 11:30 am

I've read that when the partner visa holder arrives in the UK for the first time it is essential that the Tuberculosis Certificate is presented to the interviewing UK Border Agency (UKBA) officials on arrival.

My husband is planning to arrive in September 2021 and his Tuberculosis Certificate expires in August 2021. Is it going to be a problem? Does he need to obtain a new one before arriving in the UK?

Has anyone had any experience, please?

No need to get a new one, the TB cert being valid is as at time of application. It may be expired yet should be at hand at point of entry to UK.
