If you wish to work in the UK on a temporary basis, then you will need to apply for a UK Tier 5 (Temporary Workers) Visa.
To talk to us about obtaining a Tier 5 (Temporary Workers) Visa, please phone our office on 01212482850.
Categories of Tier 5 (Temporary Workers) Visa
There are currently five categories (or Schemes) under the Tier 5 (Temporary Workers) Visa. These are:
- Charity Worker Category
- Creative and Sporting Worker Category
- Religious Worker Category
- Government Exchange Category
- International Agreement Category
Eligibility
To be eligible to apply for a Temporary Workers Visa, you must have an offer of employment by a recognised UK sponsor.
You also must be able to show that you have held funds of £945 in an account that is acceptable to the Home Office for a period of 90 consecutive days. Alternatively, you do not have to provide any evidence of funds if your Tier 5 sponsor is A-rated and is willing to confirm on your Certificate of Sponsorship that you will not claim public funds during your stay in the UK with Tier 5 immigration permission.
The five Schemes will generally allow you to work in the UK for a period of 12-24 months.
