How much do i need to apply for UK Visa in Nigeria?

 You must consider the cost before Applying for UK Visa in Nigeria

The first cost you must consider is the Visa application fee. This is the fee you pay for visa application processing. The price of this varies, depending on the category of visa you are applying for and the duration.

The second cost to consider is the cost of your trip. This will mostly cover the cost of Flight, Accommodation, Feeding etc. This will also depend on the purpose of your visit and duration of your visit. 

For Example, if you intend to visit the UK for 10 days for tourism, it is expected that you will pay for accommodation and feeding for 10 days, unless someone else is funding the trip. The person who will fund the trip will be required to show that he/she has enough funds at their disposal to cover the estimated cost.

In most cases, you will be asked how much you budget for your trip. 

If you are funding your trip, then you must have enough money to cover your trip and extra in your bank account.
