Resources
The visa routes for investors and entrepreneurs are subject to regular adaptation.
Our immigration solicitors are on the ball with the ever-changing landscape and, working alongside our technology, tax, company secretarial and private client teams, we are able to advise on options for those seeking to invest in the UK or set up a business here.
We also have experience in advising those recognised as experts in their field on visa options to allow them the flexibility to bring their expertise to the UK without being tied to any one employer.
The Tier 1 Investor route closed to new applicants in early 2022. We are able to provide strategic assistance to those seeking to invest in business in the UK, either by establishing a UK presence of an existing overseas business, or establishing a new innovative and scalable business in the UK.
We can advise on areas such as:
- The Innovator Founder route
- Global business mobility: UK Expansion Worker sponsor licence
- Transferring UK expansion workers to the UK (formerly the sole representative of an overseas business route)
- Scale-up visa
- Global Talent visa
We can also advise on matters such as:
- visas for dependent family members
- settlement in the UK
- naturalisation as a British citizen
