I have a question does anyone know when you go for your interview and pay for your visa can you pay in pounds or does it have to be in dollars my fiance goes for his interview on monday and i was just checking. Thank you

s&t, reports are that you can pay thevisa fee in dollars($131), pounds(~£90) or by credit card. the courier fee (£14.20) can be paid in pounds or by credit card. correct me if this is wrong.

good luck on monday!

Yup. They only accept certain credit cards and in terms of cash, they ask you if you're paying in pounds or dollars. I paid for the visa service in dollars (though I'm on AP still D:). You might want to look up what credit cards they accept.

can anyone confirm about which cards are accepted? or skeez&t, or any of the april 6th-ers, could you make a note (or ask) when you are at the embassy? we could update the embassy page with that info if we can get our hands on it.

go, teamwork!
