Transit without visa eligibility for Indian passport and common format residence permit by EEA or Switzerland holder
score:2
Accepted answer
It says "you may be eligible" on the website - what could be the reason one is not allowed to do so?
Here "may" is used to indicate that the border force officer is the final decision maker on your application to enter the UK, in contrast to airside transit where normally you would not be assessed by an immigration officer.
The border force officer will assess your eligibility under the immigration rules. The gists are the same as the requirements for transit visa:
- you’ll be in transit to another country, with enough funds and the intention to travel on
- you can enter that country
- the only purpose of your visit to the UK is transit
For example, they may refuse your entry if there are doubts on the genuineness of your purpose to enter the UK; e.g. if your itinerary is not a reasonable one (flying via UK despite cheaper and shorter flights that are available or itineraries not proposed by airlines). They can also refuse entry for normal grounds of refusal e.g. criminality.
Will I be allowed to board the airline in such a case?
Yes, if you bought a single ticket and the airlines can confirm your connecting flight.
