Apply For An Intra-Company Transfer Visa

Due to the recent changes to the Immigration System for the UK, the previously known as Tier 2 (Intra Company Transfer) visa is now renamed to be the Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) visa. 

The visa category is still for individuals who are non-UK/Irish citizens and who are employees of multinational organisations who need to be transferred by their current employer to a branch or subsidiary in the UK. The organisations must be filled by a settled worker on a longer-term basis or as a graduate. 

What are the Intra-Company routes?

There are two sub-categories for the Intra-Company Transfer (ICT) visa; long-term staff and graduate trainee.

Long-term staff

This is for an employee who needs to be transferred to a job which cannot be filled by a UK recruit; they must have worked for their employer overseas for at least 12 months (unless they are going to earn at least £73,900 in the UK or more, based on working a maximum of 48 hours per week).
