What our Dubai and Lisbon teams do with you on your UK Innovator Founder visa application.
Yes. Before you apply, an approved endorsing body must assess your business or business idea and issue an endorsement letter. The idea must be new, innovative, viable and scalable. The Home Office publishes the list of endorsing bodies.
The rules set no fixed minimum investment. If you are setting up a new business, you show your endorsing body that you have enough funding and where it comes from.
Usually CEFR level B2 in reading, writing, speaking and listening. You can show it through an approved English test, a degree taught in English, or certain UK school qualifications. Nationals of some majority English-speaking countries are exempt.
If you apply from outside the UK, you need at least £1,270 in your bank account for 28 consecutive days. Your investment funds cannot count towards this.
Yes. Your partner and children can apply as your dependants. Each also needs savings on top of yours: £285 for a partner, £315 for the first child and £200 for each additional child.
The visa is granted for 3 years and can be extended. You meet your endorsing body after 12 and 24 months to show progress. Under the current rules, you may be able to apply for settlement after 3 years.
