Can I reapply for a British visa within the validity period?

In some cases, in order to facilitate unified management, the embassy will have a requirement that "one valid visa cannot be applied for the same visa". To put it simply, I applied for a valid visa before, but now the visa has not expired. Even if I can no longer use it, I can't apply again.

Moreover, the embassy has also taken measures against this situation, that is, applicants who violate the conditions will be refused visas twice, and the embassy will refuse to sign the old valid visa and the new visa being processed at the same time. But for Britain, the embassy is not so strict. Even if the visa is valid, you can apply for a new British visa.

Example 1:

There was once a child who applied for a visa with his classmates and teachers because of the school. The escort in the visa was a teacher. Later, I had to go with my parents, so I had to apply for a new visa and change the escort to my parents. Finally, I successfully signed it.

When re-applying for a visa within the validity period, the Immigration Bureau will directly replace the old visa with a new visa, that is, the old visa will be invalid, but the newly issued visa embassy will still give the applicant a new validity period.

Example 2:

The applicant reapplies for a two-year visa to the UK, which will remain valid for two years after the visa is issued.

Although you can reapply for a British visa within the valid time, it is recommended that applicants do not reapply for a visa without special circumstances, because even if the visa is valid, they need to prepare materials and pay fees, and they may be refused. /zd/ym
