UK visa extension

Upvote:1

My understanding is that you will need to apply for a new visa.

Extensions for long-term and multiple-entry visit visas (Link):

If a visitor holds a long-term multiple-entry visa and they want to stay for longer than the visa expiry date, it is possible for them to apply to extend their leave for up to the maximum 6 months permitted for visitors (standard). For example, a visitor arrives in January and their long-term visit visa is due to expire in February. Provided the visitor meets the rules, they can extend for up to 6 months, until June, as a visitor (standard). A single entry or 6 month visa can also be extended to complete 6 months’ in the UK as a visitor.

You will not qualify for the visa extension since on this page it states that you need to apply from inside the UK on the visa that needs extending (which you will not be).

Eligibility

You must apply while you’re still in the UK.
