Short-term work visas in the UK allow foreign nationals to undertake specific temporary work assignments across various sectors. These include the Charity Worker, Creative Worker, Religious Worker, Seasonal Worker, and Government Authorised Exchange visas. Each visa caters to different roles, such as volunteering for a charity, performing arts, religious service, or taking part in government-approved training programs. These visas generally allow stays ranging from 6 to 12 months and require sponsorship by a licensed UK employer or organisation. Applicants must prove they intend to leave the UK after their assignment and meet financial and eligibility criteria. Working outside the sponsored role or accessing public funds is not permitted.
