Bangladeshis wishing to apply for a UK visa will now be able to use the On Demand Mobile Visa (ODMV) service which will allow applicants, who are residents of Dhaka, to submit their visa application much closer to home.

The Dhaka ODMV uses the UK Visas and Immigration's mobile biometric enrolment system (BES) equipment to take biometric data (finger scans and digital photograph). This service is delivered by the UK Visas and Immigration's commercial partner, VFS Global, the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office announced.

"UK Visas and Immigration seeks constantly to improve the service we offer. I am delighted to announce that the UK is the first country to launch the VFS Global mobile facility in Bangladesh," Alison Blake, British High Commissioner to Dhaka, said.

"This service allows Bangladeshis to submit their visa application and biometric data outside our current network of Visa Application Centres. For customers in Dhaka, it means they no longer have to travel to the Visa Application Centre in Dhaka to submit their applications."
