There is no separate (individual) visa for the Isle of Man. Visitors can apply for a UK visa to travel to the Isle of Man. Holders of a valid visa for the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man, or the Channel Islands can travel freely around the Common Travel Area without the need to apply for a specific visa for the Isle of Man.

Entry Requirements for the Isle of Man

The visa requirements for the Isle of Man are the same as those for the United Kingdom. Nationals of some countries do not need to apply for entry clearance prior to travel to the Isle of Man/United Kingdom. However, visitors must be assessed at the point of entry to the United Kingdom. It is advisable to check if you need to apply for entry clearance before you travel.
