Student Visa Holders: Registration Events

• You should upload the following documents in e:Vision at step 4 of the CAS request task:
  Biometric Residence Permit (BRP): both sides of your card
• Vignette (short term travel visa): showing the Border Force arrival date stamp.
  OR
• eVisa decision letter and;
• If you are under 18 you must also upload a letter from your parents/guardians giving their
  permission for you to travel; and supply contact details of a UK-based parent/guardian.

If you have an eVisa, you will need to provide us with a share code to prove your immigration status. You should generate the share code before you attend your registration event appointment, and bring it with you to the event. You should also upload a copy of the Decision letter you received about your Student Visa application, at step 4 of the CAS request task in e:Vision, before you attend your appointment.

When you generate a share code you will be asked to choose from a list of three options - please select ‘Something else’ as this can be used for Right to Study. A correct Right to Study share code will start with an ‘S’.

Please also bring some form of evidence to your appointment to show when you entered the UK, eg flight ticket or boarding pass. This can be provided in a digital format and does not need to be uploaded to e:Vision.

Visit our BRP cards and eVisas page for more information about these changes.

Please ensure that you have the following documents with you:

• Student card
• Passport
• Vignette (short term travel visa): found inside your passport and date stamped when you
  entered the UK. If you have an eVisa you will not have one of these.
• Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) or if you have an eVisa you will need to bring a valid share
  code with you (see below for further information).
• Original hard copy of the academic qualification document that is stated on your CAS

If you have a vignette, but it was not date stamped when you entered the UK, it's most likely because you
used an e-Gate. e-Gates can be used by residents of:

• Australia
• Canada
• Japan
• New Zealand
• Singapore
• South Korea
• United States of America; and
• the EU

If you arrived in the UK from one of these countries, please bring some form of evidence to your appointment to show when you entered the UK, eg flight ticket or boarding pass. You will be asked to provide this at the event and should not try to upload it to the CAS request task. You can show us this evidence in a digital format, for example, a flight ticket email. If you are not a resident from one of these countries, please speak to a member of staff at your registration event appointment.

This is the named document that is on your CAS under ‘Evidence used’. Please bring the original document, photocopies are not accepted. If this document is not written in English, you will need to provide an official original English translation at your appointment, as well as the original document.
