Visa Solutions for UK Business Visits
The UK is one of the most vibrant economies in the world. Its role in the global economy makes it one of the top destinations for businesspersons from across the world. To visit the UK for business, you need to apply for the Standard Visitor Visa. This is a 6-month visa, and you can apply up to 3 months before you travel. EKASO – TAKA Immigration Law Consultants Pvt Ltd can guide you through the entire UK business visa process with our expert services.
UK Business Visa Details
The UK Business Visa is a one-time or longer-term visa that allows holders to stay in the UK for up to 6 months at a time. You must apply for this visa if you are visiting the UK for reasons such as:
- Attending a conference, meeting, or training
- Taking part in a sports activity
- Seeking funding to start, oversee, join, or run a UK-based business
- Other business-related activities
Employees of a corporation based in another country are also allowed to engage in the following corporate or intra-corporate activities:
- Share skills and knowledge on a specific internal project with UK employees of the same corporate group, without working directly with clients. This includes advising, consulting, troubleshooting, or providing training.
- Conduct regulatory or financial audits as an internal auditor for a UK branch of the same group of companies.
- Receive training in work methods and procedures that are essential for the visitor’s employment abroad but not available in their home country, provided by a UK-based company or organization.
