Business based UK Visas take a variety of forms and there are several routes that you can take to gain entry to the UK. The Entrepreneur visa allows experienced business people to live and work in Great Britain, investing capital and starting a business within the United Kingdom. Alternatively, applicants may come to Britain on a self-employed visa, with a pioneering idea under an innovator visa or simply to invest in the British economy through an Investor visa. UK visa applications under all of these routes offer the potential to apply for Indefinite leave to remain in the UK (ILR) or permanent residency as it is often known.
As well as business based applications for UK visas, there are a range of UK visas which allow people to train or study in Britain, and to experience life in the United Kingdom. A study permit, or student visa application, allows international students to study in the UK experiencing the culture and environment of the United Kingdom whilst at University. Beyond a study visa for the UK, schemes such as the International Graduate Scheme, and the Fresh Talent: Working in Scotland programme allow students to experience working in the UK for a limited time.
Candidates can also take advantage of the Training and Work Experience Scheme or (TWES) allowing overseas naturals to undertake work experience or training in Britain, or to participate in the Working Holiday scheme which allows a combination of both visiting and working in Britain.
While we assist individuals to live and work in the UK or to benefit from the range of experience and training opportunities available, assistance can also be provided for other British immigration services. We can secure partner and relationship immigration visas for people with British connections who wish to settle in the United Kingdom by means of a UK Marriage visa, UK Fiance visa or De Facto visa, often known as an unmarried partner visa. In addition, we can help tourists and business visitors to gain entry clearance through a temporary UK visit visa, frequently referred to as a travel visa or tourist visa. Please see our Frequently Asked Questions for some common definitions of the above UK visas.
