Visas: Tripoli

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what the average waiting time is for an application for a British visa from the British embassy in Tripoli.
Answer

Due to the current security situation in Libya, the UK visa service in Tripoli is suspended. However, the UK Border Agency offers exceptional visa services to Libyan officials visiting the UK at the invitation of the British Government. All such visas are processed to external customer standards, but the limited volumes mean that average processing time data is not collated.
