UK Tier 1 Entrepreneur :

  • Applicants can open any type of business,  but must work full-time in the running of the business.
     

  • The applicant has to score 75 points under this section in the following manner:

    • By providing evidence that the applicant has got access to at least £200,000: 25 points (max.)
       

    • By providing evidence that the money is being held in one or more regulated financial institutions:  25 points (max.)
       
    • By providing evidence that the money is disposable in the UK: 25 points (max.)

    The applicant must claim 75 points in total using the points earned in all of the above mentioned subsections.
     

  • You must meet the English language ability requirements  of 6.5 IELTS if you do not hold Bachelor Degree equivalent to UK Master Degree.
     

  • You must have sufficient funds, as specified by the UK Government at the time of application.


    It is no longer necessary for the applicant to show £200,000 of his own to seek entry clearance or further leave to remain  under Tier 1 (Entrepreneur). He can rely on third party funding to make up the £200,000 and apply under Tier 1  (Entrepreneur). The third parties may be one of the following:
     

    • Family members (within the UK or overseas)
    • Any other investor (within the UK or overseas)
    • Any corporate body (within the UK or overseas)
       

Initially the Tier 1 Entrepreneur visa will be granted for a period of Three years. After the initial Three years people on the scheme can apply to stay longer but must re-apply and meet the pass mark of 75 points in attributes and 20 points for language and funds.. The visa will then be extended for a further two years. On completion of the total five years you can also make an application for indefinite leave to remain (permanent residency). Again as requirements stand at present, 12 months after obtaining Indefinite Leave to Remain in the UK, you may be eligible to apply for naturalization and to acquire a British passport.

Dependants (partner and children under 18) can be included in your application.
