Nationals of countries such as the US, Canada, Australia and EU member states (i.e., ‘non-visa’ countries) coming for relatively short period (90 days or less) can apply for just a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS). This is a certificate number that we generate, and which is presented when they arrive in the UK. They receive a dated stamp in their passport, entitling them to work.

Key features of obtaining a CoS:

• No appointment needed; all arranged over email.
• Relatively inexpensive.
• Turnaround of approximately two weeks, subject to urgency.

Nationals from countries such as India, China and South Africa (i.e., ‘visa’ countries) coming to the UK for any amount of time, or non-visa nationals required in the UK for more than 90 days, need a biometric visa before travel. This process involves both an appointment and temporary surrender of the passport. We issue their mandatory supporting CoS, collate the application paperwork, arrange the appointment, and manage the permit distribution.

Key features of obtaining a biometric visa:

• Involves an appointment to submit biometrics (fingerprints, image, signature).
• Costs vary according to requisite priority level.
• Turnaround of 2 – 6 weeks, subject to urgency and associated costs.
