哪些人需要在英國申請工作簽證?​​ 

Since the U.K. exited the EU, most non-U.K. nationals, including those from the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland, need a visa to work in the country. This does not apply if they have settled or pre-settled status under the EU Settlement Scheme, or a valid pending application that lets them prove their right to work.​​  

U.K. immigration uses a points-based system (PBS), which generally applies to non-U.K. nationals who need permission to work, study, or come to the U.K. Irish citizens are usually exempt under Common Travel Area arrangements. This system allocates points based on criteria like job type, salary level, and English proficiency. Applicants also need a job offer from a home office-licensed employer. Successful applicants can live and work in the U.K. for the period covered by their work visa.​​ 

英國的工作簽證選擇​​ 

英國專業人士工作簽證包括:​​ 

  • 技術工人簽證:這是技術專業人員最常見的工作簽證,需要滿足以下幾個條件:​​  
    • Applicants must have a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) from an employer with a valid Home Office sponsor license. A CoS is an electronic sponsorship record, not a paper certificate.​​ 
    • The job must match an eligible Skilled Worker occupation code. It does not need to appear by exact job title.​​  
    • 申請人必須獲得至少達到其職位最低薪資標準或一般薪資標準(以較高者為準)的報酬。​​  
    • 申請人還必須證明他們能讀、寫、說和理解特定程度的英語。​​ 
  • Global business mobility (GBM) visas: These visas let businesses transfer employees to the U.K. The senior or specialist worker visa is the main Global Business Mobility subcategory for intra-company transfers. It lets companies move senior managers or specialist employees to a U.K. branch, but does not provide a direct path to settlement.​​  
  • 擴大簽證:適用於從合格的、高成長的英國企業獲得工作機會的個人。​​ 
  • 高潛力人才(HPI)簽證:適用於全球頂尖大學的應屆畢業生。​​ 

英國工作簽證的申請;求職申請流程​​  

The U.K. work visa application process is almost entirely digital. Physical biometric residence permits (BRPs) have been phased out and replaced by eVisas. Individuals access and manage their immigration status through a UKVI account and can generate a share code for right-to-work checks. Processing times are usually three weeks for work visa applications made outside the U.K. and eight weeks for those made inside the U.K. Health and Care Worker visas are usually processed in three weeks from either location. Priority services are available if a U.K. work visa needs to be fast-tracked.​​  

  1. 雇主頒發 CoS:雇主在接受工作機會後頒發 CoS。 取得和維持擔保人執照對雇主而言涉及重大的合規義務,包括記錄保存和報告責任。如果沒有此許可證,公司無法頒發技術工人簽證申請所需的 CoS;求職申請。​​  
  2. Employee applies online: The employee completes the U.K. work visa application online. They submit their CoS, evidence of English language skills, job offer details (including occupation code), and may also need to provide proof of salary, bank statements, and legal clearances. The employee usually pays the application fee and the immigration health surcharge (IHS) upfront, unless exempt. The IHS gives visa holders access to the National Health Service (NHS) during the period covered by their visa, though some charges may still apply.​​  
  3. 員工提交生物識別資訊:大多數申請人需要提供指紋和照片。這通常在簽證申請;求職申請中心完成,但有些人可能可以使用英國移民:身份證檢查應用程序,具體取決於他們的國籍和申請;求職申請類型。​​ 
  4. 決定和電子簽證:一旦獲得批准,申請人將收到決定,並可以在線訪問其數位移民狀態。​​ 

英國工作簽證的其他重要注意事項​​ 

Skilled Worker visa holders can usually bring dependents to the U.K. Eligible dependents include a spouse, civil partner, unmarried partner, and children under 18. Children over 18 may qualify if they already have UK permission as a dependent. Restrictions can apply for care workers, senior care workers, and some medium-skilled roles. Each dependent must submit a separate application and pay the required fees, including the IHS. Their visa expires at the same time as the main applicant’s U.K. work visa.​​

常見問題​​ 

為什麼雇主不能擔保英國簽證?​​ 

英國贊助要求贊助方對被贊助職位承擔真正的責任,包括其職責、職能和成果。在以名義僱主為擔保人,但指派其擔任由客戶控制的角色的勞動力供給模式下,可能會給各方帶來合規風險。 G-P不作為雇主勞工供應安排中的擔保人。 我們支持透過客戶主導的簽證策略規劃,為擁有現有授權的工人提供合聘申請途徑。​​ 

英國簽證許可規則是否允許第三方工作安排?​​ 

是的。即使受聘員工前往客戶現場或支援客戶合同,第三方安排也不會自動被禁止。關鍵問題是誰負責這項工作。贊助商可以將工人安排到第三方項目中,贊助商確實與該項目簽訂了合同,以提供明確的服務或項目,並對工人的職責、職能、監督和產出負責。不允許的是使用 Visa 贊助向客戶提供持續的日常職位,客戶將日常職位作為其人員的一部分。​​
