UK Global Business Mobility routes consultant in India talks about the newly introduced pathways.

The Home Office UK had done some significant changes to the UK immigration rules for entrepreneurs and professionals, seeking opportunities to start their business/career in the UK.

One very popular business immigration route in the UK was the ‘Representative of an Overseas Business visa’ (also called as UK Sole Representative visa) which was unfortunately closed down from 11th April, 2022, for new applicants.

Instead, the Home Office launched a few new visas, amended some existing ones, and introduced a special category ‘Global Business Mobility’ which has 5 visas under it, that cater to business owners in the UK, overseas firms, and skilled professionals. These visas came into effect from 11th April, 2022.

Get in touch with The SmartMove2UK to know about these visas in detail. As a UK Global Business Mobility routes consultant in India, we accurately guide clients to set up their presence in the UK.

Appendix UK Global Business Mobility routes came into effect on 11th April 2022. The UK Global Business Mobility routes simplify the offering for businesses by reforming or expanding the existing routes. The Home Office has introduced new UK immigration rules.

The first two routes cater to companies that already have an established presence in the UK, whilst the last two though are aimed towards companies with no established UK presence. However, there is a precondition to having a ‘footprint’ in the UK.

The Secondment Worker visa is for both kinds of firms, with and with no presence in the UK.

Depending upon the type of visa, the applicants will need to demonstrate the following requirements:

• Sponsorship from an employer recognised by the Home Office.
• Appropriate skill level for the job role.
• A salary threshold.
• The minimum duration an applicant has been employed by the overseas firm.
• Temporary work assignments (visa can be switched to a settlement category if eligibility is met).
