psoriasis patient fingerprints for uk tourist visa

[timsi 0]

I am staying in UK since past 2 years.My father wants to visit me from India.He is a psoriasis patient with his finger skin often ripped off.

I am wondering,what is the option for psoriasis patients to give fingerprints.

Does anyone aware of whats UK immigration process if a person is unable to give fingerprints.

Thanks a lot for your help.

What happens if I refuse to comply?

If you refuse to provide your fingerprints for

checking you will be subject to further investigations

and this may result in a delay to your journey while a

decision on admission is made.

What happens if I have suffered an injury that

prevents the check?

Our Officers will try wherever possible to carry

out the fingerprint check, whilst being sensitive to

your injury. With partial injuries, we will take your

fingerprints, avoiding the injured fingers. If it is

not possible our Officers will continue their checks

under the current UK Border Agency procedures.

What happens if my fingerprints were not captured

as part of my application?

You will not be required to provide your fingerprints

at border control and our Officers will continue their

checks under current UK Border Agency procedures.

This is all UK border agency says on the matter.
