Supporting visa or residence permit: meaning
A qualifying foreign document that enables a conditional entry route. Issuing country, remaining validity, entry type and previous use may all matter.
Will my other visa or residence permit change the entry route?
- Start with your passport and destination. A supporting document is a condition to check, not a replacement nationality.
- Compare the issuer, document type, remaining validity and any previous-use or multiple-entry condition with the destination rule.
- If a required detail is unknown, keep the ordinary route until you can confirm the exception. Open the evidence attached to that condition.
