Creative Worker Visa
About Creative Worker Visa
The Creative Worker Visa is for performers, artists and other creative professionals coming to the UK to take up a sponsored role that contributes to the UK's creative sector. It is a temporary route used for engagements such as theatre productions, music tours, film and television work and other artistic projects. The application requires sponsorship by a licensed UK sponsor and supporting evidence about the role and your background. RakLAW advises individual creatives and sponsoring organisations through the application, helping make sure deadlines and evidence requirements are met.
