Standard visitor Business Visa
My company has been the sole distributor for a UK-based company in the GCC and MENA region for the past two decades. As they celebrate their 50th anniversary this year, they have invited me and my family to attend their official function. I plan to travel with my wife alone for this occasion. They will provide an official invitation letter, which will include our names and confirm our company’s longstanding representation of their brand in the GCC region for over 20 years.
However, I applied for a UK visa last year, which was unfortunately refused. I am attaching the refusal letter for reference.
Since being granted a 10-year UAE Golden Visa, my bank statements have been somewhat irregular as my business transactions primarily involve cash payments and rotations, which are not always reflected in my account.
This visit to the UK is highly significant for building stronger relations with our business partners and supporting our ongoing collaboration.
Additionally, my children are studying in the UAE, and I have been paying my rent consistently on time. Although the lease is under my brother’s name (who no longer resides in the UAE), I can provide evidence of my timely rent payments.
i have been to the UK with my father in 2006 and that was a business trip with him and I have traveled to Australia in December 2024 and the USA in 2017. Though my USA visa will be expired in March 2025. And I have appointment for interview on April 2025.
Could you please advise on the documents I should upload to strengthen my application?
