Accepted answer

You probably don’t need a visa to transit via LHR if travelling to/from the US with a valid visa. The UK government’s “check if you need a visa” tool states, even in the case where you need to go through passport control:

Transiting without a visa

You may be eligible to transit without a visa if:

  • you arrive and depart by air
  • have a confirmed onward flight that leaves on the day you arrive or before midnight on the day after you arrive
  • have the right documents for your destination (eg a visa for that country)

One of the following must also apply:

  • you’re travelling to (or on part of a reasonable journey to) Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA and have a valid visa for that country
  • you’re travelling from (or on part of a reasonable journey from) Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA and have a valid visa for that country (…)
