UK Immigration

The UK is one of the World’s most popular immigration destinations for people wishing to live and work in a new country. However, the UK immigration system is restrictive. Following the EU referendum result of 23 June 2016 and the decision to leave the EU further changes have been made to the UK visa system. Recently the UK Innovator visa and UK Start-Up visa scheme have been introduced.

In many cases you need to come under the UK tier points-based visa system which measures applicants against various criteria designed to assess their eligibility for a UK work or study visa. Most work-related visa applications such as the Tier 2 visa scheme, as well as Tier 4 study visa applications, are now made through this system.

Since 2010 the UK government has made a series of changes to UK immigration law in order to restrict immigration to the UK, especially from outside of the EEA.
