About The Intra-company Visa
Intra-company Visas are for multinational employers who wish to transfer existing employees from outside the UK or Ireland to their UK offices for training or to fill specific professional vacancies that for any specific reason cannot be filled by British, Irish or Settled workers.
This UK Visa works similarly to other Work Visas and provides a definitive path for professionals who are already based and established at a business or company who seek access to the UK for work-related purposes.
Intra-company Visa categories
If you are seeking an Intra-company Visa for yourself or for one of your employees, it is key that you make the correct application. There are a number of subcategories for this route and you must pick one that is most relevant to your situation.
To ensure that you are pursuing the correct visa category, contact our corporate specialist team who offers extensive services. We shall make sure that all relevant documentation is submitted and presented clearly in your application, helping you increase your chances of the Home Office granting your application in a timely manner.
