UK Sole Representative Visa Lawyers in London

Further detail

Detailed information about our Sole Representative service

The Sole Representative Visa is designed to allow foreign national companies, which have not set up a branch or subsidiary in the UK, to send over a senior representative to start up their first commercial presence in the UK. Unlike the old Entrepreneur Visa, which required an investment sum of £20,000, the Sole Representative Visa does not have a minimum investment threshold. Instead, the focus will be on the merits of your business.

Our expert lawyers have decades of experience to support your business proposal. Our team will assist you in creating the necessary business plan for your application, which will include:

• Financial information from your business, including projected forecasts.
• Where your business fits into the current UK market.
• The proposed structure for your UK company.
• Your target market and proposed advertising strategies.
• Proof of capital and investment.
• Collating this information is an essential part of the Sole Representative Visa application process, and legal assistance is strongly recommended for individuals who want to be successful in their application.

This visa is specifically targeted towards small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) who may not necessarily have the capital to invest a full £20,000. It is perfect for those who wish to test how their company will fare in the UK market and provides certain exemptions to criteria needed in other visas. For example, there is no set number of employees you must recruit for your company.

Westkin Associates prides itself on its clear and transparent advice. We understand the value of honesty and will keep you informed of the potential opportunities, risks, and overall prospects of your application.
