Move Up gets this query often. South Africans with long layovers often look to see if they can "quickly" pop into the UK and run around before they head off again to their next destination.
We understand the motivation to ask this question. It happens often.
The reality though, is that South Africans have to queue at the UK border (with an average of 1 hour processing time).
At the border, the South African is asked where is their visa. To which the applicant will have to state they do not have one. At this point, they have to motivate that they meet the TWOV concession clause.
If the border official is open to allowing entry based on TWOV concession, this approach is feasible.
If the border official is not open to the idea, they have every right to take the applicant aside and "further investigate" their intent and compliance. Worst case, they can just refuse entry.
Refused entry is given in the form of a stamp together with a letter of motivation. All future travels to the UK will factor this refusal in the decision-making process.
The point we are trying to make is that TWOV concession not welcomed nor is it risk-free. It puts a strain on border officials and opens the client up to unnecessary risk. Move Up does not recommend making use of TWOV clause for quick visits to the UK (although theoretically possible).
