I am a US permanent resident living in NY with a green card, and am wanting to travel to the country of Wales. Does anyone know the Visa requirements for such a trip and do I need a Visa at all? I wasn't quite sure because I know that those with a US passport can travel to the UK without a Visa. I'm originally from Brazil and I couldn't find any immediate information from online at the moment.

Thank You!

Hi Surfely - the key question is what passport do you hold? If its a Brazil passport then you do need a visa for stays up to 6 months.

Wales is not really a country, it does not have real borders or immigration requirements. No visa or passport is needed to enter. She will only need a passport to enter the UK.

Wales IS A COUNTRY!
Just because it's part of the UK doesn't mean we don't have our own borders and our own language.
We speak Welsh (well a lot of us do) and English is not our only official language.
In terms of passports/visas getting into the UK will get you into Wales but we have our own government and laws so we are definitely another country!

The point is that Wales does not have any border posts and therefore does not require any visa for entry. A visa for Great Britain, check at the airport of arrival, is all one needs.

If Wales is really a country, does it have a seat on the United Nations? An army? A passport?

Dev - it is a scam, part of large fake job scam running in the UK. There is no such company from what i can see. Their website is fake too. Do not get involved!!!

For any US permanent resident making an application for a tourist visa to UK, I advise you to think 3 times before doing so. If you are from the wrong country,they may refuse your visa for whatever made up reason they want. There is no "fair" in visa processing. In any case, do not trust Worldbridge or the UK-in-US Embassy sites to tell you what documents they would like you to send (e.g., *apparently* the original permanent resident card, bank statements, etc.) to supplement all the information requested on the form. Most other countries will tell you but not UK. Biometrics are required -- you must travel to a USCIS office to do these. A lot of work for a refusal. Much different than the rosy statistics they put on their website. And, they may mark your passport with a Refusal which will plague you for all future visa applications. See also

Indeed I am also a co-passanger like you wherein they had given me the appointment letter

After processing the Agreement etc. now they are asking GBP 1650/- for visa & work permit which in usual course of business can be justified.

But the hitch is the remittance details wherin they had given Bank details of “NATWEST BANK, AINTREE, LIVERPOOL, L9 OEG, U.K., ACCOUNT NAME: VICTORIA FLOWERS, ACCOUNT NO. 74663577 SORT CODE: 537021 ,
IBAN: GB21NWBK53702174663577, BIC: NWBKGB2L.

Please note : the controller details, including the name i.e. Mr. Terry Horman can not be verified onsite. Same is the case of the company wherein no contacts can be made.
Furthermore once you confirm your ready & willingness, there will be frequent calls for remittances of money.

To sum –up advisable to lodge the compliant so to save others as well as to open the Pandora box.

UGB: this looks like a scam. Be very careful and do not send money unless you can confirm the authenticity of thet company and their offer. This is a recognised modus operandi for scammers so my call is report them to the UK police.
