How to Upload Your eVisa to Your Visa Application

Guidance on uploading the correct eVisa document to your application

If our Immigration Advisors have asked you to upload a copy of your eVisa, please follow the steps below.

Your eVisa is your digital immigration status.

✅ Step 1: Log in to Your UKVI Account

  1. Go to: https://www.gov.uk/evisa/view-evisa-get-share-code-prove-immigration-status

  2. Click “View your eVisa and get a share code”

  3. Log in using the details linked to your UKVI account

📄 Step 2: Download Your eVisa as a PDF

Once logged in, you will see a page showing:

  • Your full name

  • Your visa type (e.g. Skilled Worker)

  • Your visa expiry date

  • Your immigration status

Save or print this page as a PDF. It is usually titled Your immigration status. Upload the full PDF, not a screenshot or photo of your screen, because a screenshot may be rejected as not an eVisa.

Make sure the PDF shows:

  • Your name

  • Your visa type

  • Your visa expiry date

📲 Example of the correct eVisa status page to upload:

✅ Important: We Do NOT Accept Share Codes

🚫 Do not upload a screenshot of your share code.

🚫 Do not upload a “Prove your status” page showing only a share code.

We cannot proceed with a share code alone. You must upload the PDF of your full eVisa status page showing your visa details.

⬆️ Step 3: Upload to Borderless

  1. Log in to your Borderless portal

  2. Go to your visa application

  3. Click 'UK Visa Information"

  4. Upload your eVisa PDF. If the details can be read, the form fields are filled in for you and you can edit them.

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Uploading a share code instead of the full eVisa page

  • Uploading a screenshot or photo instead of the PDF

  • Uploading a different visa document

We need to see your actual digital visa status page, not the code used to share it.
