The Start-up category is for early-stage but high potential entrepreneurs who are starting a business in the UK for the first time.
Entrepreneurs in this category can work on their own or as part of an entrepreneurial team. The business may or may not already exist, but should not yet have started trading fully. Applicants can develop entrepreneurial projects in any sector provided the idea is sufficiently innovative, viable and scalable.
The category is not designed for those wishing to join a business already trading in the UK (the Tier 2 Skilled route may be more appropriate) or to invest in an existing business (the Tier 1 (Investor) category may be more appropriate).
Successful applicants (Innovators) will be granted leave for 3 years at a time and can bring their family members to the UK. After 3 years, Innovators can apply to extend their stay for a further 3 years or to settle permanently in the UK. Each of these 3 stages (initial application, extension, settlement) requires endorsement from an Endorsing Body.
Can the successful applicant work to support themselves?
Successful applicants (Innovators) will be granted leave for 3 years at a time and can bring their family members to the UK. After 3 years, Innovators can apply to extend their stay for a further 3 years or to settle permanently in the UK. Each of these 3 stages (initial application, extension, settlement) requires endorsement from an Endorsing Body.
It is a requirement for Innovators to work entirely on developing their business ventures and are not allowed take on other employment outside of their business. This includes anything which effectively amounts to employment, such as using their own business to hire out their labour to another employer.
Although the Endorsing Bodies have been nominated, so far very few of them, if any, are actually geared up to scrutinise and endorse projects.
Our chambers will be able to assist individuals willing to opt for this route, with preparing applications.
Endorsement from an Endorsing body approved by the Home Office
Endorsing bodies consider early-stage proposals from entrepreneurs and provide long-term support to those they endorse. Some may offer financial assistance in exchange for a share in the business.
Endorsing bodies will stay in contact with the business founders they endorse to check on their progress. The endorsing body must be satisfied that applicants are continuing to work on their business ventures. This may impact the outcome of any subsequent Innovator applications.
Endorsing bodies may also withdraw endorsement if they consider progress to be unsatisfactory or find breaches of the conditions attached to the visa.
No funds are required for investment in the business but sufficient maintenance funds must be shown for the applicant and their dependents.

What Our Clients Say
S GUSSI
I went to see Barrister Mohammed Monwar Hossain in relation to my immigration appeal matter. His services, attitude, honesty, behaviours and representation were excellent. I am grateful for his help. My problems have been sorted out by him.
N NESSA
My two relatives have been in the UK for the last 12 years. He got their flight cancelled twice and bail granted three times. He helped them for Judicial Review and the Home Office has agreed to reconsider the decision. Barrister Monwar is really great!
NASIR KHAN
Mr Hossain is such a barrister who does not care about big fees but desperately helps people who faces immigration problems. I work as environmental officer in UK. I have no hesitation to say that if anybody has been failed and no where else to go.
