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 11 April, 2022. Get in touch with The SmartMove2UK to know about these visas in detail.

The applicant must be assigned to the UK to undertake work that is related to expanding the overseas business in the UK. This route can only be used when the business has not yet begun trading in the UK. If the business is already trading in the UK, workers should apply for a ‘Global Business Mobility – Senior or Specialist Worker visa’ instead.
