Visa center in Manchester

“We would highly recommend Unique Visa Services. The whole process was very smooth, completed details online, posted passports and received them back promptly with visa. Communications were excellent and the whole service we received was professional and very efficient. Would certainly use them again.”

“I visited the Consulate last Friday and was greeted with professionalism and respect by everyone I interacted with. Thank you for the fantastic service.”

“I had a truly amazing experience with this consulate .I had not only made a few mistakes but my original application had expired The lady helped me complete the form. I was allowed to work through the dinner break. She was a wealth of information and expedited the whole process. If only some of our own institutions were half as efficient...Great introduction to Russia... Really looking forward to my trip...Thanks so much..”

“Review of the Breakfast at Vita Student I’m genuinely impressed with the breakfast provided at Vita Student. Every weekday morning, students can enjoy a generous and varied buffet that includes cereals, sweet and savoury pastries, bagels, waffles, fresh fruits, yoghurt, salads, and a selection of cold meats and cheeses — all completely free of charge between 7am and 10am. It’s the perfect way to start the day: nutritious, well-balanced, and full of options. The quality and consistency of the breakfast really set Vita Student apart from other accommodations. Highly recommended! Amir Guemari”

“Entrance to the UKVCAS centre is side of the building not through the St James Tower main entrance. There are plenty of parking spaces surrounding area. People are advised not go there early; they don’t have much waiting space inside. Only applicants are allowed to go inside. My wife had an appointment at 3:30 PM. We reached there 5 minutes before the appointment and receptionist let my wife in. It took 30 minutes to complete the process.”

“I will be forever grateful to GMIAU especially Nadia Hussain. I am saying a big thank you for your help during the toughest times of my life. Your expertise and support truly made a difference in navigating through that period. I appreciate all the hard work you put in to help me. Thank you so much.”

“I cannot praise Jason high enough . This is the second time that I have used China Visa Services and on both occasions with his help the whole process was extremely smooth and trouble free”

“Service was very professional and speedy, I was able to get an appointment within 2 weeks relatively easily and they even were helpful in organising an extra blood test I needed for my work. The place was easy enough to access via public transport (I walked from train station, not too far from victoria) All staff were helpful and the doctor who performed my medical was really pleasant, polite and good rumoured which put me at ease. The first staff member who took my photo seemed a bit abrupt but I think she was rushed. Overall a very good service. I realize the medicals seem a bit pricey but it did what I needed it to do.”

“Simple and good hotel, with an excellent location in the northern part of the city center. Very close to the Arndale Mall and surrounded by many shops and restaurants. Exceptional service — quick, efficient, respectful, and pleasant. Clean rooms and overall a very clean hotel. The dining area is a bit crowded for my taste, and the English breakfast is basic.”

“We stayed here for the Christmas Markets and the Pete Tong event at the AO Arena. Staff were excellent, the room was great. The bar is open until 5am, and you can order food until then also. The location is great too.”

“wonderful stay. Room was modern, comfortable, and more amenities than you might necessarily expect do the price. Didn’t even spend that much time in the hotel but it had a decent bar, breakfast and pool table downstairs. Excellent location right next to the station and trendy locations in Manchester. Plan on staying in this hotel every time I visit if I can”

“Straightforward process at the Manchester centre and was in and out in 30 mins, let me explain the visa journey for those visiting or applying for the first time. You book your flight tickets and accommodation before applying for your visa, they need to know your travel details in advance to grant you a visa. You apply online which is the tricky part, you need to have information regarding your trip, passport, work history and family history. Once the online application is accepted (usually 24-48 hours). You then have to visit the centre in either Manchester or London (no appointment needed) with the confirmation print out of visa application complete, you hand over your passport and finger prints are taken as part of the application. You then have to wait another 2-3 days for visa to be ready. You can collect or have it posted out to you. I would strongly advise to apply 2-3 weeks before you travel, to allow for any complications. If you've visited Turkey in the last 12 months this may delay the outcome of your visa. Please factor this in or research online beforehand.”

“Best place for OCI, E VISA TO INDIA, INDIAN PASSPORT RENEWALS and SCHENZEN VISAS. INDIAN PASSPORT PHOTOGRAPHS”

“I had an excellent experience at VFS Manchester. I’d like to highlight the outstanding service provided by Prathesh Paulraj, who handled my application. From the beginning, he was polite and welcoming, and he took a moment to apologise for the wait, which I really appreciated. He was highly efficient, professional, and ensured the process was smooth throughout. His courteous manner and attention to detail truly stood out. I was very pleased with the overall experience — exceptional service!”

“I had a great experience with Anam during my Belgium visa process. She was very kind, professional, and incredibly helpful throughout. Anam explained everything clearly and patiently, which made the whole process stress-free and easy to understand. She was always supportive and approachable, and I truly felt guided at every step. I’m very grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“went to submit NVR application. Make sure you can buy an envelope paid and 500grams from any post office. If you are applying for NVR or new passport or renew passport.”

“Excellent service. All staff were very cooperative and friendly. Also, the checklist we are receiving by email is for London, not for BLS Manchester. Please find attached the checklist for BLS Manchester visa applications. Additionally, if you have a premium appointment, you can come to BLS and get all your printouts done there, and they will assist you in sorting everything.”

“I had a great experience at the Manchester Consulate. The staff, including the manager, were very friendly and helpful. They were neither bossy nor rude and efficiently handled four NICOP applications within an hour. There is plenty of parking available on Conyngham Road, with three hours free, as well as a few spaces near the consulate on Dickenson Road (though I’m not sure about the parking timings there). At the time of writing this review, next-day bookings at the Manchester Consulate are offered at 7:00 PM every evening, Sunday through Thursday. I found plenty of available slots when I made my booking. There weren’t many people at the consulate on our appointment day, possibly because it was a Friday. I did notice a couple of people without appointments being served, but you need to have a thick skin in those situations, as the staff can be quite strict or blunt. Overall, I found the entire team pleasant and willing to help.”

“Excellent experience using The Lawyers Firm. The solicitor Yasar was very thorough and hardworking. Answered all my questioned and responded quickly to my emails. He prepared an excellent case with all required evidence. Really happy with the service I received. Will definitely use this firm again if needed!”

“Thanks to his expertise and attention to detail, my case was handled efficiently and successfully. I always felt supported and confident that I was in good hands. If you're looking for an immigration lawyer who is honest, responsive, and truly cares about your case, I highly recommend”

“We instructed Medlock Solicitors to when we received an offer on our city centre apartment and overall they were superb! I feel the price was very reasonable and we predominantly dealt with Jeanie who was responsive, professional, patient and was able to answer any queries promptly. Rachel came in to finalise our sale and was very communicative and was able to efficiently get everything over the line, would highly recommend Medlock Solicitors!”

“I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the OISC Level 1 course. I found it incredibly informative and well-structured. Your teaching methods and support made the learning experience enjoyable and effective. Thank you for your dedication and for providing such valuable insights.”
