UK High Potential Individual Visa
The UK High Potential Individual Visa is designed for recent graduates from top global universities who wish to work or explore job opportunities in the UK. This visa route offers the chance to gain valuable experience in the UK but does not lead directly to settlement. However, you may be able to switch to a different visa route that offers a path to settlement before your visa expires. Partners and dependent children may accompany or join you under this visa.
Key Features
Work Opportunities: Allows you to work or look for work in the UK without needing a specific job offer.
Transition to Settlement: While the High Potential Individual Visa itself does not directly lead to settlement, it provides an opportunity to switch to other immigration routes that may lead to permanent residency.
