Tier 1 Visa - UK Entrepreneur Visa Guideline

The entrepreneur visa falls under Tier 1 of the points based system. Candidates applying under this category are required to make a substantial investment by starting a business in the UK.

A Tier 1 Visa application doesn't require the applicant to have a sponsor. It is solely based on the applicant successfully achieving points.

Entrepreneur applicants fall under the Tier 1 visa category. Applicants may also meet the criteria for a Tier 1 visa in one of the following categories:

Tier 1 Visa - General
Tier 1 Visa - Investor
Tier 1 Visa - Post - Study Work

Tier 1 Visa – Duration
A Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa is initially granted for two years. During this period applicants must make the full investment and create at least two jobs for EEA (European Economic Area) nationals. After the initial two year period, depending on the performance of the business, the applicant may apply for a Business Visa extension for three years. After five years the applicant may qualify for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) in the UK. If your dependents qualify they would be free to work or study here with you.

Tier 1 - Entrepreneur Visa General Requirements
Under the Points Based System, UK visa applicants must be able to satisfy the language and maintenance requirements. It is particularly important for non-EEA nationals migrating to the UK to be able to speak the English Language with the exception of those entering the UK as investors.

Skilled migrants will need to prove they have sufficient English language skills in one of the following ways:

Under any of the Tier 1 visa sub categories the applicant must be able to support their self and any dependents for their entire stay in the UK without recourse to public funds. The total sum necessary to satisfy the requirement of the main applicant is £2,800. The first dependent will need approximately £1,870 and any further dependents will need to have £940 in their account at the time of applying.

The points for a Tier 1 Visa are based on the applicants UK experience, English language skills, qualifications, previous earnings, age and available maintenance.

The key requirement for the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa is the amount of investment funds and the guarantee that the applicant will be taking control of a business in the UK.

The Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa requires the applicant to gain 75 points. Applicants must satisfy the following requirements in order to satisfy the point's criteria:

Under the Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa category applicants must not undertake any form of employment within the UK. This type of visa is solely for the purpose of coming to the UK to set up a UK based business.

With a Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa applicants may start their own business, join an existing business or take over an established UK enterprise.

It is an essential requirement of the Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa that the applicant employs a minimum of two people either part-time or full-time with settled status in the UK.
