Visa Categories
Global Talent Visa: Designed for highly skilled individuals in fields such as science, technology, arts, and humanities. The visa provides the flexibility to work for any employer or be self-employed. Applicants must secure endorsement from a designated body, demonstrating exceptional talent or promise. Settlement can be achieved in as little as three years for those recognized as exceptional talents.
Skilled Worker Visa: A key route for professionals to work in the UK, this visa is based on a points system requiring sponsorship from an eligible employer. Applicants must meet criteria such as a job offer at the required skill level, a minimum salary threshold, and English language proficiency.
Health and Care Worker Visa: Specifically for healthcare professionals, this visa allows eligible individuals to work in the UK’s health and social care sector. Requirements include sponsorship by an approved employer and relevant qualifications.
Student Visa: For international students pursuing studies at UK-recognized institutions. Requirements include confirmation of acceptance for studies (CAS), financial evidence for tuition and living costs, and meeting English language standards. Students may work part-time during their course.
Visitor Visa: Tailored for short-term visits, whether for tourism, family visits, or business purposes. Applicants must demonstrate their intention to leave the UK after their stay, have sufficient financial resources, and not plan to work or access public funds.
