UK SCALE UP WORKER VISA

You must meet all of the following requirements to be eligible for a Scale-up Worker visa:

your job is eligible for this visa

you’ll be working for a UK scale-up business that’s been approved by the Home Office

you’ll meet the salary requirements

you’ll be working in your sponsored job for at least 6 months

Check if your job is eligible

You need to know your job’s 4-digit occupation code. You can get this from your employer or your certificate of sponsorship.

When you know your occupation code, check the table of eligible occupations to see if it’s eligible for your visa type.

Salary requirements

You’ll need to be paid whichever is the highest out of the following 3 options:

• £33,000 per year
• £10.10 per hour
• the ‘going rate’ for the type of work you’ll be doing

Each occupation code has its own annual going rate. Check the going rate for your job in the table of eligible occupations.

Example

Your salary is £34,500 per year, but the annual going rate for the job you’ll be doing is £36,000. You do not meet the salary requirement for this visa because you’re earning less than the annual going rate for your job (£36,000).

Approved UK employers

You must have a job offer from an approved UK employer before you can apply for this visa. They must be an eligible scale-up business to get approved.

Approved employers are also known as sponsors because they are sponsoring you to come to or stay in the UK.

Check if your UK employer is eligible to sponsor you

Your UK employer will be on the list of approved UK employers if they’re eligible to sponsor you. ‘Scale-up Worker’ must be listed in the ‘Route’ column in the table.
