u may need transit visa but since ur terminal is not changing u could be ok.....the thing is if ur flight from munich to london is a domestic flight then u need transit visa if international then u wont .....what happens is if ur terminal changes and ur flight becomes domestic then to get to that terminal u have to go through immigration.....hence u will need a visa.....best is to call ur airlines and ask them this question if the flight is going to be domestic or not and if u will have to change terminals....

You might have problem in UK because of terminal change. Better to ask UK border association or search through website if you need transit visa for UK and act fast.

Best of Luck.

Yes. It's true.

If flight is transiting from 2 schengen countries, then we need visa.Since, UK and Ireland, both are not part of Schengen, so nikhil won't need schengen visa. But might need UK transit visa because of terminal change.

UK might not allow to change terminal but in Germany one surely can without visa.
