Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to the most common questions about UK work visa applications.
Q1: What is the Global Business Mobility visa?
The Global Business Mobility route consists of five sponsored work visas for international companies looking to conduct business, move employees, or grow operations in the UK. The five categories include:
- Senior or Specialist Worker: For experienced managers and specialists
- UK Expansion Worker: For establishing a company's first UK office
- Graduate Trainee: For employees in formal training schemes
- Secondment Worker: For staff assigned through valuable contracts
- Service Supplier: For delivering services through international trade deals
Q2: Can you get permanent residence through this visa?
Not directly. None of these five visa types provide a straight path to Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). But many people switch to other visa categories like the Skilled Worker route while they're already in the UK, which can then lead to permanent residence.
Q3: What salary do you need to earn?
Pay requirements differ between categories. Senior or Specialist Workers and UK Expansion Workers usually need to earn £52,500 annually or the standard rate for their role - whichever is more. Graduate Trainees have a reduced requirement of £27,300 or 70% of the standard rate.
Q4: How long can you remain in the UK?
Duration varies by visa type. UK Expansion Workers get 12 months initially, with a 2-year maximum total. Senior or Specialist Workers can receive up to 5 years per application, though there's a combined limit of 5 years within any 6-year span (extending to 9 years for those earning above £73,900).
Q5: How quickly are applications processed?
Processing typically takes 3 weeks when applying from outside the UK. For those already in the UK switching routes, expect around 8 weeks. Fast-track services can deliver decisions within 5 working days.
Question 6: Can I bring my family with me?
Answer: Yes. In most Global Business Mobility categories, your partner and dependent children (under 18) can apply to join you in the UK. They will usually be granted the same length of stay as you and have the right to work and study in the UK, with some minor restrictions.
