The UK offers several visa options for foreign nationals seeking to engage in business activities or establish a commercial presence in the country. Business visas include routes such as the Self-Sponsorship Skilled Worker Visa, ideal for entrepreneurs aiming to run a business in the UK without a traditional sponsor. The Innovator Founder Visa supports experienced businesspersons with innovative ideas endorsed by approved UK bodies. The Representative of an Overseas Business Visa is tailored for employees of foreign companies looking to set up a UK branch or subsidiary. Each visa route has specific eligibility requirements, such as investment capital, a viable business plan, and English language proficiency. These visas do not generally permit employment outside the approved business activities. Applicants must demonstrate a clear business intent, financial stability, and compliance with UK immigration rules. Business visas offer a potential pathway to long-term residency or settlement in the UK.
