Representative of an Overseas Business Visa
The Representative of an Overseas Business Visa, sometimes referred to as a Sole Representative Visa, is for persons seeking to come to the UK to set up a branch or a subsidiary of a company abroad for which they work. The parent company abroad should not already have another sole representative in the UK, although it may already have a limited presence here.
Innovator Visa
The Innovator visa is for business people who have at least £50,000 to invest in an innovative idea which can be turned into a business that can be scaled up fairly rapidly in the UK.
Start – Up Visa
Start – Up Visas are for those who have a business idea which is new and innovative and can be turned into a business in the UK. The business idea should therefore not be like anything already in the UK.
