Letter of Invitation (To Live in the UK)

A letter of invitation is a formal document written by a UK resident or organisation inviting an individual to visit or live in the United Kingdom for a specific purpose. This might relate to work, a family reunion or a relationship.

It is often referred to as a sponsorship letter, as the person writing the letter must be willing to take responsibility for the recipient’s accommodation.

Other types of letters facilitating a move to the UK include:

• Business invitation letter
• School or University invitation letter
• Hospital invitation letter

Notarising these letters adds credibility and validity. The process is often required by immigration authorities during your visa application.

Planning a trip to the UK? Some visas need a notarised letter of invitation to confirm your visit’s purpose and legitimacy. This can smooth things over with immigration and show them you’re coming for the right reasons.

We can notarise the Letter of Invitation in two ways:

• An original Letter of Invitation  

The letter would be signed in the presence of the notary public. The notary would confirm the identity of the signatory, their signature and capacity to sign. A notarial certificate would be affixed to the letter.  

• A copy of a Letter of Invitation

You would provide us with the original Letter of Invitation. We would make a copy and notarise the copy as a ‘true copy’.
