UK Visa For Indians. So, it is common knowledge that a US visa allows for visa-free travel to many countries, but what if I tell you that having a UK visa has similar advantages.
Yes! You can travel visa-free to over 30 countries, provided your UK visa is valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry, has multiple entries, and must have been previously used to enter the UK before.
