If you're from a Commonwealth country like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, or certain Caribbean nations, you might not require a UK Standard Visitor Visa for stays of six months or less. Citizens from the United States and many South American countries typically enjoy visa-free access to the UK for up to six months too. Also, as long as the UK is part of the European Economic Area (EEA), nationals from other EEA Member States can visit the UK without needing a visa.
However, citizens from most other countries must obtain a UK Standard Visitor Visa if they intend to visit the UK for tourism, attend a business conference, visit family, or seek private medical treatment.

A UK Visitor visa is typically issued for a duration of up to six months. However, in certain circumstances, it can be granted for shorter periods, such as for those attending specific events or for medical treatment. Extensions beyond the initial six months are generally not allowed, and visitors are expected to leave the UK before their visa expires.
One crucial aspect that UK Visas and Immigration considers is your intention to depart the UK upon the conclusion of your visit, rather than attempting to remain in the country beyond the expiry of your UK Standard Visitor Visa.
To ascertain this, the Home Office may assess your immigration history, frequency of visits to the UK, presence of a return flight booking, and the credibility of your purpose for visiting the UK, taking into account your background.
