Business Visits
There is no specific provision in the Immigration Rules for business
visitors. Business Visitors are mentioned within the general visitor provisions
as a person coming to the United Kingdom to transact business. It provides a
brief list of examples but it is not comprehensive.
The Immigration authority's policy guidelines allow a broad range of business
activities to be undertaken by visitors including advisers, consultants,
trainers, troubleshooters, computer software personnel coming to install, debug
or enhance their products, and workers coming to erect, dismantle, service,
repair or advise on the development of foreign-made machinery. This range
sometimes makes it difficult to ascertain whether an individual requires a work
permit or not.
Westminster Business Associates Ltd has considerable experience in providing
advice on these matters.
If you have a specific query regarding business visits, please email
business@visalondon.com or use our general
enquiry form.
