Hi all,
I would like to get some information/clarification regarding transiting from London, UK.
My wife and I are planning to spend about 48 hours in London before catching our flight to the final destination India). When I check on this website: https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa/y/india/transit/somewhere_else/yes , the information indicates that permanent residents of Canada do not need to apply for Visitor in Transit Visa. However, Transiting without visa information is not precise as we will going through UK border control but leaving the UK within 48 hours. We are planning to spend two nights (48 hrs) in London, before we take the onward flight. Any help would be great!
