Craigavon has supported visa appointment routes in Manchester and Edinburgh in the supplied list. The nearest listed centre by the supplied distance is the BLS Spain Visa Application Centre in Manchester, at Unit 1, 205 Chapel Street, Salford, Manchester M3 5PF, linked to Spain. Edinburgh also provides listed France, Spain, Italy, Netherlands and Portugal options. Because these journeys are substantial, compare the route carefully, confirm current provider instructions and allow for changing travel conditions before booking or setting out for the appointment.
By the supplied distance, Manchester is the closest supported application city in the supplied list. BLS International's Spain centre is at Unit 1, 205 Chapel Street, Salford, Manchester M3 5PF, with a listed estimated driving time of 451 minutes from the centre of Craigavon. The Edinburgh choices are TLScontact at Argyle House, 3 Lady Lawson Street, for France; BLS International at Suite 1A, 6 Dock Place, for Spain; and VFS Global at 1 Rennie's Isle for Italy, the Netherlands and Portugal.
The route list gives Craigavon applicants one Manchester Spain option and five Edinburgh options: France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands and Portugal. Provider links are separated by destination, with BLS International handling the listed Spain applications, TLScontact the France option, and VFS Global the Italy, Netherlands and Portugal options. Check the destination's official guidance and the selected provider page before committing to a city, especially when the journey is lengthy or dates do not suit your plans.
The Manchester BLS estimate is 451 minutes from the centre of Craigavon. The Edinburgh estimates are 679 minutes for the TLScontact France centre and 686 minutes for the BLS Spain and VFS Global centres. These are estimated driving times, not fixed journey promises. The supplied caveat warns that live traffic, road closures and the applicant's starting point can change the result, so check the full journey before accepting a date or arranging travel to attend.
Travel planning needs to account for the different Edinburgh addresses. The France centre is at Argyle House, 3 Lady Lawson Street, Edinburgh EH3 9DR. Spain is at Suite 1A, 6 Dock Place, Edinburgh EH6 6LU, while the VFS Global centre for Italy, the Netherlands and Portugal is at 1 Rennie's Isle, Leith, Edinburgh EH6 6QT. For the Manchester Spain route, use the Salford address shown in your confirmation rather than relying on a saved address from an earlier search.
Craigavon's supported routes are split between Manchester and Edinburgh. Match the destination to the correct city and provider before reserving anything. Spain appears in both cities, so check whether your selected route is the Manchester BLS option or the Edinburgh BLS option.
Review the official centre page and appointment confirmation for the destination you selected. Edinburgh VFS says no on-site parking is listed; TLScontact and BLS also provide current instructions. Do not assume information for one Edinburgh centre applies to another.
Use 451, 679 and 686 minute estimates as broad planning figures, not guarantees. The calculation starts at the centre of Craigavon and cannot account for every live condition. Check traffic and road conditions on the day, and leave enough flexibility for the appointment journey.
For Manchester Spain, check the current submission time and courier requirements before travelling. For the Edinburgh centres, read the relevant provider instructions and prepare the documents required for your visa category. Keep the confirmation with route details so the address and destination remain clear.
