Beginning March 2, all UK visa applications in Vietnam will be processed at the British Embassy in Bangkok as part of a program to have all UK visas processed at regional hubs, rather than at each specific locality. However, the British diplomatic mission in Vietnam will no longer have the ability to arrange visas on short notice.

The changes come as part of a global initiative to streamline visa processing to help UK diplomatic missions meet increasing demand.
