Tips to get the UK Visit visa for yoga freelancer

Hi friends,

I'm going to be sponsored for a visit to UK on a tourist visa. Used to be a full timer before but from the last two years I just have been teaching yoga in two different yoga studios/retreats in Pokhara (Nepal) as a freelancer and they can write a letter for me explaining that i work for them as a freelancer and so on......So don't know if this would be enough or work for the British Embassy to allow me a visit visa as i'm not a full timer, neither a student nor i own a company. Can anyone help me with their suggestions plz?

Feel free to ask if you need to know anything regarding this, thank you.

Are you asking about the requirements for a visitor's visa? Is so see:
https://www.gov.uk/standard-visitor-visa


Are you asking whether you can work on a tourist visa? If so the answer is simple. NO. You will need to show the immigration officer a return ticket and proof that you can support yourself while in the UK without working or you will not be admitted.

The OP also posted on the Europe forum. I don't think s/he is asking about working in the UK. But if having a history of part time/freelance work is sufficient to show a work relationship back in Nepal.

As I posted on the other thread . . . you need to apply and let them decide. -Nothing anyone tells you on a travel forum has any relevance.
