Overview:

"A highly potential, new individual route is expected to make the process easier for the individuals who are internationally mobile and who have a considerable potential to enter the U.K., as it will allow those who have shown their potential through academic achievement to arrive in the U.K. without a job offer," stated Kevin Foster, the Immigration Minister of the U.K.

A new pathway to enter the U.K.

The graduates from the world's most renowned universities have a new pathway to enter the United Kingdom, awarded within five years of application.

The High Potential Individual (HPI) visa targets attract graduates from high-skilled foreign universities. Based on their degree level, the graduates will be permitted to stay and work in the U.K. for two to three years.

 The applicants need not require a job offer or sponsorship, and the visa holders are allowed to enter the U.K. to work. They will be eligible to switch to other long-term employment visas if they meet the requirements.

A fascinating category under the post-Brexit points-based system is focused on attracting the finest talent worldwide, regardless of nationality, said the Indian-origin UK Cabinet Ministers Rishi Sunak and Priti Patel in a joint announcement.

A two-year work visa will be provided to the applicants and a three-year visa to individuals with Ph.D. without a necessary job offer.

The U.K. to become an influential international hub for innovation

The U.K. will see growth as an influential international hub through the new visa route for entrepreneurship, creativity, and innovation. Some of the most pioneering start-ups have considered the U.K. their home country.

It is believed that the businesses of tomorrow are to be built here today, and it is suggested that the students need to take full advantage of this extraordinary opportunity to shape their careers.

 The U.K. government states that the new visa scheme is a part of the constant changes applied to the immigration system of the country after leaving the European Union (E.U.) and permits visas to the individuals depending on the skills that they have to offer and the contribution they can make regardless of where they come from.

Global Business Mobility is a newly opened route in April this year that improves and simplifies different routes to allow the businesses to enlarge.

The Scale-up visa route targets promoting the businesses in talent recruitment by allowing them to invite employees to the U.K. later this year.
