Hi felippe,

welcome to the forum.

your girlfriend is going to need a Schengen visa for italy, and a visitor visa for the UK.

Thanks for that MellieC - I've just been reading threads regarding acquiring these visas and it seems quite problematic - maybe it's best I not book anything until the visas are sorted - she did warn me that nothing was plain -sailing in Tunisia lol

sort out the visa's first!

your girlfriend is right, becuase tunisia is a visa national country, im going ot guess from your name that maybe you are european?

easy for us to travel without giving it much thought, not so for tunisians.

you have the right to enter Italy and the UK as and when you wish.

your girlfriend would need a Schengen Tourist visa for Italy, and a visit visa for the UK.
