Project details

The Tier 1 UK Entrepreneur visa is designed for a specific class of migrants with solid business track record and a history of valid and legitimate investments. Such people are welcome to migrate to UK by submitting a UK visa application for the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa.


This type of UK visa is processed without delays as long as the UK visa requirements are met and all documentation perfect at the time of application. One major advantage of this visa is that it can lead to British citizenship. To obtain this UK Investor visa, the applicant is required to have up to 200,000 Great Britain Pounds available. This has to be cash available to be withdrawn. A good business plan and proof of ownership of business, where the applicant is already the owner of a business, will also be required.

English Language Ability

IELTS measures the ability to communicate in English across all four language skills - listening, reading, writing and speaking - for people who intend to study or work where English is the language of communication.

If application is successful, the applicant:

· Is given an initial visa for only 3 or 4 months
