Hi Friends,

Does any one has a recent experience of transit in London Airport. I am traveling to Nepal Via London and i have a 12hr transit.
Can i get a visa at London airport for 12hrs so i can step out.
My Current status in US is GC.

Any first hand experience, please share.

Thanks.

What I did in London Transit last year during layover was headed toward the departure, lined up in immigration, told the immigration officer that I have GC and 11 hrs layover and wanted to roam around London, After looking at my GC, she stamped me a 24 hr temporary stay status (not visa ) in my passport and I had my fun in the city. 

I had made up my mind to stay in the transit even if they had turned down my request which they did not. In short, there is no visa application in London transit. All you do is go to the immigration in normal departure and request to allow u to enter the city.

You can apply For UK visitor visa in US in case u don't want to take risk of getting rejected to go out of terminal but it takes time for prepartion, application and money. 24 hr stamping in London immigration was free.

 Notification bro. 
It's a VERY SIMPLE process to go out of London during Transit.

Just line up in the immigration and tell them you want to go out during Transit !

That's it. !!!! Yes. thats all !!

They'll stamp you 12 hour or 24 hour temporary Entry !

Dont panic

You'll be fine.

I did that when i was F1.

You have GC. !!

Good luck

Thanks Guys,  Lets see i will also try my luck at the terminal itself.

Thanks.
