On 31 March, our new commercial partner for UK visa services, Teleperformance Ltd., will take over the running of our Visa Application Centre in Tanzania. The Visa Application Centre will be moving from its current location at the British High Commission to different premises in Dar es Salaam as follows:

New Teleperformance Application Centre Address
Viva Towers,
294-295 Ali Hassan Mwinyi Road,
Upanga,
Dar es Salaam,
Tanzania.

 Date of Relocation
31 March 2014.

 UK visa customers will continue to complete their applications and pay their visa fee online at Visa4UK before selecting an appointment at the Teleperformance application centre. Hours of operation at the new centre will be increased from 0830-1630hrs, offering a wider range of daily appointments. Our standard service levels will not change as a result of outsourcing to a commercial partner. Operating outsourced Visa Application Centre facilities allows us more flexibility to drive improvements in customer service with greater access to added value services such as priority visas and return courier options. We will work closely with our commercial partner to ensure continuity of service during the transition period.

All UK visa applications will continue to be decided by UK Visas & Immigration staff.

The UK remains open for business and these new arrangements will allow us to maintain a world class, competitive visa system to support Britain in the global race. We are listening to the needs of our customers and these changes will improve our service by increasing the number of visa application centres globally and expanding the number of locations and countries where premium services are available.

  2. UK-Visa,

    If you have managed to get know about business competition and the way you could retain UK place on global competitiveness, how many days awaiting time?

    We have been discouraged with dwindling long Visa awaiting time at the extent of 5 days!

    Why should I not turn towards US Embassy for the same day Visa decision?

  3. If UK continue to issue visas after 5 days or more, we have to say you have been defeated on the global race on competitiveness!

    I can see nothing has improved with these changes if you still hold customers visa applicants awaiting on 5 days or more!

  5. On first intention seeing UK visa announcement with declaration to business competitiveness here I could think you want to let us know that you are about to issue UK visas on the same day !!!

    I am always dragging back my legs when considering tedious Nairobi Visa processing and 5 days UK visa awaiting time!

  6. I rather choose another country for Business than un-business friendly UK with Nairobi visa processing with 5 days or more visa waiting time!

  7. I was in idea you are about to make UK Visa issuance within Dar no longer Nairobi, also I was in thought you want to make one day visa issuance!

    Ohhh, despite of this move if you cant overcome the (TWO) regimes above I am afraid nothing will improve or change!

  10. ALIYE LALA USIMUAMSHE; UKIMUAMSHA UTALALA WEWE. MDAU ULIYEPAYUKA NA KULALAMA DHIDI YA MJOMBA WA UGHAIBUNI NI LINI UTAFUMBUA MACHO HAPA KWENYE DANGANYIKA YETU. MIMI NIPO BONGO LAKINI WAKATI MWINGINE NASIKITIKA KUONA WASWAHILI WANAVAMIA LUGHA ZA WATU ILHALI BADO HAWAJATENGEMAA NAZO. MBAYA ZAIDI WANAWAANDIKIA WADAU WA MICHUZI AMBAO WENGI HAWAIELEWI VYEMA LUGHA YA MAMA MALKIA. MJOMBA KUTUKUMBUSHA KATIKA HILI HAJAKOSEA KITU. HUNA HAJA YA KULIA NA KUJIVISHA UJANJA BUTU. KUMBUKA HAKUNA UBAYA WA KUJUA LUGHA NYINGI LAKINI NI VYEMA UKAWA MAHIRI KAMA UNAAMUA KUZITUMIA KUWEKA MAMBO SAWA. VINGINEVYO MNATUCHANGANYA AU KUELEWA KWA TABU. MARAIS WENGI WANATUMUA LUGHA ZAO WAKIWA UMOJA WA MATAIFA NA WAJUAJI WANATAFSIRI. USIWE BWEGE SANA UTALIWA NA UTALILIWA. NDIO MAANA MNAOGOPA WASOMI WA DIASPORA. WANACHEZA MIGUU MUWILI KWA ULAINI KABISA. MIMI NAWAKARIBISHA WATUONGOZE. WA MBILI HAVAI MOJA.

    MSIKILIZE MJOMBA WENU WA UGHAIBUNI
    KAONA MENGI.

    MUMEO MTARAJIWA
