IMK Immigration Lawyers Solicitors Milton Keynes Northampton

BUSINESS IMMIGRATION


The UK remains a highly attractive place for business around the world and despite Brexit, Britain still retains excellent access to the global market place and is a fantastic place to do business. The UK's immigration rules allows certain companies or individuals from other countries to either start or expand their workforce in the UK on application by applying for a sponsorship licence. IMK Solicitors can also provide comprehensive advice and guidance to non-UK nationals looking to invest in the UK, or British business looking to recruit highly skilled individuals, saving you crucial time and effort to focus on your business needs. 


BREXIT


Britain’s post-Brexit immigration system changed dramatically in January 2021 following the end of free transit between the European Union countries and the UK. As such, the rules for business immigration to the UK have drastically changed with the introduction of the skilled worker route (replacing Tier 2 of the Points Based System). More recent changes include the removal of the Tier 1 Investor route altogether.

IMK Solicitors can provide you comprehensive advice on how these changes affect you and help you plan effectively and hire workers from the EU and beyond.
