International Sportsperson Visa
The International Sportsperson visa route is for an elite sportsperson or qualified sports coach who is internationally established and can make a significant contribution to the development of their sport at its highest level in the UK.
A two-stage process to obtain a visa in this route:
1. Obtain a Governing Body Endorsement from the Governing Body for the relevant sport; and
2. Apply for entry clearance or permission to stay under the International Sportsperson visa route.
We have experience of preparing successful International Sportsperson visa applications on behalf of our clients. We pride ourselves on the presentation of our applications to the Home Office. You can be assured that your application process will be managed in a professional and organised manner.
We will be with you every step of the way.
