Source: Home Office entry-clearance datasets released 27 August 2026, covering 1 July 2025–30 June 2026. Figures for the first two quarters of 2026 are provisional. Counts are by nationality and decision period, not residence, unique people, an agent’s customers or the outcome of applications made in the same period.
Grant share = visas issued ÷ (issued + refused). Withdrawn and lapsed cases are excluded. Applications are a separate series and must not be used as the denominator for a decision-period success rate. This is a description of recorded outcomes, not your personal chance of approval or evidence that an agency caused the result.
