因为我下礼拜要去伦敦转机, 我还是打电话去英航确认了, 说是不用签证, 另外也从英国使馆网站上找到这个:
w w w.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/transitthroughtheuk/visa-transit-airside/
If you are a national of a country covered by the DATV system(包括中国), you may be able to transit the UK airside without a visa. To qualify for this exemption:
you must arrive and depart by air; and
your onward flight must be confirmed, and must depart within 24 hours; and
you have proper documentation for your destination, including a visa if necessary.
Additionally, you must hold:
1) a valid entry visa for Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA, and a valid airline ticket for travel via the UK, as part of a journey to or from one of those countries; or
2) a valid airline ticket for travel via the UK as part of a journey from Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA, if you are transiting the UK no more than 6 months after the date when you last entered Australia, Canada, New Zealand or the USA with a valid entry visa for that country; or
3) a valid USA I-551 permanent resident card issued on or after 21 April 1998; or
4) an expired I-551 permanent resident card issued on or after 21 April 1998, accompanied by an I-797 extension letter issued by the Bureau of Citizenship; or
5) a valid Canadian permanent resident card issued on or after 28 June 2002; or
6) a valid Australian or New Zealand residence visa; or
7) a valid uniform format category D visa for entry to a state in the European Economic Area (EEA); or
8) a valid uniform format residence permit issued by an EEA state under Council Regulation (EC) number 1030/2002; or
9) a valid UK residence card; or
10) a valid EEA family permit issued by the UK government; or
11) a diplomatic or service passport issued by the People's Republic of China; or
12) a diplomatic or official passport issued by India; or
13) a diplomatic or official passport issued by Vietnam.
大使馆的网站上提到转机签证的时候先是申明中国公民需要转机签证, 然后网页最最下面有个"more information", 打开才会看到有个"'Transit without visa' concession - DATV exemptions", 还非常难找, 打开那个才能看到上面那段.
不知道为什么大家会有两种经验...我从来没有过任何英国签证, 拿的是中国护照, 确实已经去英国机场转机过两次了(2009年跟2012年), 去年那次还被安检没收了在上海机场买的免税化妆品.
下礼拜又要去伦敦转机了, 回来向大家汇报
