The Global Talent route is designed for individuals aged 18 and over who demonstrate exceptional talent or promise in the fields of science, engineering, humanities, medicine, digital technology, or the arts and culture. This visa category offers a pathway to settlement in the UK, leading to Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) after either 3 or 5 years, depending on the applicant’s circumstances. The Global Talent Visa also allows for the inclusion of dependent partners and children in the application.

“On 20 February 2020, the Global Talent visa replaced the Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa. Individuals previously granted permission under the Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) route can now seek an extension or apply for settlement under the new Global Talent visa regulations.”

For most individuals, the application process for the Global Talent visa involves two distinct stages.

1. Endorsement Application: The first stage is to apply for endorsement, where you must provide evidence as outlined by the Secretary of State on gov.uk/global-talent. This guidance details the required documentation and its format.
2. Entry Clearance or Permission to Stay: The second stage involves applying for entry clearance or permission to remain in the UK.

Applicants have the option to apply for endorsement before seeking permission, or they may choose to submit both applications concurrently.

Alternatively, individuals who have received a prestigious award listed in Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes are recognized as demonstrating exceptional talent and are exempt from the endorsement application.
