Settlement As A Sole Representative Visa Holder

The Representative of an Overseas Business category was closed on 11 April 2022, but many individuals who are already in the Sole Representative route will be looking to extend their leave or apply for indefinite leave to remain (ILR). In this post, we provide an overview of the requirements when applying for settlement on the Sole Representative of an Overseas Business route. We have also included brief information for dependants who may be eligible to apply at the same time as the main applicant.

Businesses that wish to send their senior managers and specialist employees to the UK to expand their overseas business, may consider the Global Business Mobility – UK Expansion Worker route. Further details are explained in our earlier post here.
