Residence and long-stay routes for work, family or settlement. Clear checklists, no guesswork on which visa you actually need. Long-term residency visas are not a 90-day Schengen sticker. They are national residence or long-stay permits for work, family or settlement.
The form, the centre and the wait are different from a holiday visa. We first confirm you are not trying to use a tourist visa for a stay the country treats as residence. Then we build a checklist: passport, UK status, proof of why you qualify, housing, funds, and any translations or legalised copies. Some countries want you to start in the UK and collect a sticker; others want you to enter and finish at a local office.
We tell you which path that country publishes, so you do not book the wrong appointment type. Send the country, how long you plan to stay, and whether the reason is work, family or study. WhatsApp +44 7853 751403. We prepare the file; we do not decide the government’s outcome.
Long-term residency visas from the UK is for applications that are not a 90-day tourist sticker. Robin Holidays helps UK-based clients assemble long-stay, work, student, medical and document files, then book the appointment the consulate actually uses. Phone or WhatsApp +44 7853 751403.

Company number 16799461. A tourist Schengen visa is not a residence permit. Work and intra-company files are built around the assignment letter or contract. Student files are timed to the CAS or admission letter so you are not applying in the last week before term.
Medical visits need hospital letters and cover that match the clinic dates. Notarisation, attestation and FCDO legalisation have their own queues; we start those before the visa slot when the embassy asks for legalised papers. Long-term residency visas from the UK should name the route before anyone books TLS, VFS or BLS. We give a checklist, not guesswork.
Bank letters, sponsor letters and proof of funds have to be in the name the instructions require. Translations must be complete if the consulate will not read English. Housing, employment and study evidence is country-specific. We do not reuse a holiday checklist for a long-stay file.
Proof of funds for study or work is not the same as a holiday bank statement: we check whose name is on the account, how many months of statements the centre wants, and whether a sponsor letter is accepted. Oxford Street, Mayfair. Send the offer letter, CAS or admission email via the inquiry form. Decisions are made by the consulate and the visa centre.
