Transit visa to UK required if I already have valid business visa for UK
score:4
Accepted answer
There is no need to obtain a UK transit visa if you already hold a more senior visa of any type. The primary legislation for this situation is in Section 33 of the Immigration Act 1971, which is referenced in Appendix V of the current rules...
visit visa means an entry clearance for the purpose of a visit under section 33 of the Immigration Act 1971. It is normally a vignette in the holder’s passport. It includes entry clearances for visitors that were issued under paragraphs 40-56, 56D-56J, 56N-56Z, 75A-75M of these Rules and Appendix V
Based upon what you wrote, you have a visitor visa which will be in force during your transit. By default, these visas are multiple entry with a term of 6 months. During that period you can engage in any of the "permitted activities", which includes transit.
