In the US, an airplane can fly a visual approach while on an IFR flight plan. There are even cases where you may be required to remain clear of clouds in an IFR flight plan.
Nobody would ever suggest DLH cancelling IFR. A visual approach is just that- navigating primarily by what’s in the window. Normal IFR flight plan.
No, you can do a visual approach and remain IFR in the UK and Europe.
