If you are applying from Southampton, the supported appointment locations in this guide are in London. The nearest listed centre is the TLScontact London Visa Application Centre in Wandsworth, with an estimated 81.1-mile drive taking 102 minutes from the centre of Southampton. Other supported London centres cover Italy, Spain and several additional destinations. Use the Cancellation Finder for listed routes. Applicants must confirm current provider instructions and appointment details before travelling.
Southampton's nearest supported centre is at 18 Ryeland Boulevard, Ram Quarter, Wandsworth, London SW18 1UN. It is the TLScontact centre linked here to the France route. The listed London options also include the VFS Global Italy centre at 8-20 Pocock Street, London SE1 0BW, and the BLS Spain centre at 20 St Andrew Street, London EC4A 3AG. The distance figure is an estimated drive from the centre of Southampton, rather than a guaranteed journey time.
The listed Cancellation Finder routes for the VFS Global London Visa Application Centre at 66 Wilson Street, London EC2A 2BT cover Austria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czechia and Denmark. France, Italy and Spain use their named centres. The listed destinations therefore cover eight routes, each with its own official booking page and provider instructions. Check the destination-specific address before setting off because the centre guidance says VFS addresses can vary by destination.
The four supported centres are all in London but not at one address. The France centre is in Wandsworth; the Italy centre is on Pocock Street; the Spain centre is on St Andrew Street; and the VFS Global centre for the other listed destinations is on Wilson Street. Use the exact address shown on your appointment confirmation, and allow margin for live traffic, road closures and changes from your starting point.
Before leaving Southampton, review the official page for your destination and the centre guidance. TLScontact asks applicants to check the France route page and confirmation, while VFS warns that addresses can vary by destination and BLS specifies the documents and appointment confirmation for the visa category. Confirm the final address before setting off for the appointment, so your journey is tied to the correct centre on the day.
Match the destination on your confirmation to the correct London centre: Wandsworth for France, Pocock Street for Italy, St Andrew Street for Spain, or Wilson Street for the other listed VFS routes. Do not rely on a general London destination alone.
Have the appointment confirmation and the documents required for your visa category ready. The BLS guidance specifically refers to both, and the other centre instructions also direct applicants to follow their official requirements. Check the relevant page again before setting out.
The supplied Southampton figures are estimated driving distance and time from the location centre. Live traffic, road closures and your actual starting point may alter the trip, so plan with spare time and recheck the appointment details if the details change.
