Visas

To get a visa for the UK, you must first determine if you need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA), then apply online through the official GOV.UK website. The application requires basic personal information, details about your trip, and a valid passport. After submitting the application, you will need to pay the required fee and, for a Standard Visitor visa, attend a biometrics appointment to provide fingerprints and a photo. 

The conferences team is happy to provide a supporting letter to individuals who require a visa. To request a visa letter, email conferences@iop.org, including your title, full name, and address. Please note that letters will only be issued to delegates who have paid the registration fee.
