Challenge an Unfair UK Visa Refusal with a Pre-Action Protocol (PAP)

​

If your UK visa application has been refused unfairly, you may be able to challenge the decision through a Pre-Action Protocol (PAP) before proceeding with a judicial review. At Visas 24/7, our expert immigration lawyers can help you draft and submit a strong legal challenge to UKVI.

​

What is a Pre-Action Protocol (PAP)?

A Pre-Action Protocol (PAP) is a formal legal letter sent to the UK Home Office before filing a judicial review. It outlines why the decision to refuse your visa is unlawful and requests a reconsideration, potentially avoiding costly court proceedings.

​

When Should You Use a Pre-Action Protocol (PAP)?

You may be able to challenge a refusal if:

• Your visa or immigration application was wrongly refused.

• UKVI failed to consider relevant evidence or made errors in law.

• Your human rights or legal rights were breached.

• You have no right of appeal or administrative review.

​

Benefits of a Pre-Action Protocol (PAP)

✅ Increases chances of visa approval – Many refusals are overturned at this stage.
✅ Avoids costly judicial review – Saves time and legal expenses.
✅ Demonstrates serious legal intent – Shows UKVI you are ready to escalate.
✅ Expertly drafted legal argument – Backed by our skilled immigration lawyers.
