Senior or Specialist Worker Visa
About Senior or Specialist Worker Visa
The Senior or Specialist Worker Visa lets multinational businesses transfer experienced senior managers or specialist employees from an overseas group entity into a linked UK business. It is one of the main intra-company routes under Global Business Mobility and is used widely by global employers moving leadership and technical expertise. The route has clear seniority, sponsorship and salary expectations, and time spent under it counts toward maximum stay limits. RakLAW supports sponsoring companies and individual transferees in preparing well-evidenced, compliant applications.
