I have a UK visa, and I was supposed to start my journey on June 6 for a conference in the UK, but before that journey the page with the visa was torn out completely. After that I applied for a new passport.

Now I am invited again for another conference in the UK. So should I apply for a new visa or can I transfer my previous visa in my new passport? If I have to apply for a new visa, what are the chances of rejection? At this moment, can you suggest me what I should do to get the visa? It's very urgent for my career and life as well.

I am helpless at this point and looking forward to seeing your answer.

    Note that there is a procedure by which you can officially transfer UK visas between passports (for a fee.) Do you still have the visa page from your old passport, or was that lost? – Michael Seifert Jul 20 '18 at 18:05
  • Edit out If I have to apply for a new visa, what are the chances of rejection? because nobody can answer that part of the question. – Augustine of Hippo Jul 20 '18 at 18:59
  • I went through the link but didn't find any option to add anything in my previous application. May be its not functional anymore. In this circumstances, should I create a new application for the visa transfer? Can you tell me how can I apply for the visa transfer? In this link, only I found the rate of visa transfer. Please help me out. – Paromita Das Jul 20 '18 at 20:06
  • Dear Michael Seifert, And most of the part is lost. – Paromita Das Jul 20 '18 at 20:18
  • I have got my answer, I need to apply for a new visa, there is no chance to transfer my previous visa into the new passport. Thanks everyone. – Paromita Das Jul 22 '18 at 15:08

I communicated to the UK embassy through the email and I have got my answer, I have to apply for a new visa, there is no chance to transfer my previous visa into the new passport.

They advised me to apply for a fresh visa. My previous visa is invalid

FYI,I had to pay for that email. Besides, I went to the visa processing office as there is no UK embassy center in my country, but they replied the same in this regard.
