Frequently Asked 
Questions

The UK Innovator Founder Visa is a route for entrepreneurs who want to establish a new, innovative business in the UK. You must be endorsed by an approved body and demonstrate that your business idea is innovative, viable, and scalable.

No! You don’t need an existing business. You need an innovative business idea. We help you develop that idea from scratch and ensure it meets the endorsement criteria.

Most of our clients complete the process in 4–6 months from initial consultation to visa grant. The timeline depends on your preparation and the endorsing body’s schedule.

You need: (1) An innovative, viable scalable business idea, (2) Endorsement from an approved UK body, (3) Proof of £50,000 in investment funds (in most cases), and (4) English language proficiency (B2 level).

Yes! Your spouse/partner and children under 18 can come to the UK as your dependants. They can work and study while you’re establishing your business.

Yes! After 3 years on the Innovator Founder Visa (meeting certain business milestones), you can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), which is permanent residency in the UK.

Our service fees are flexible and discussed transparently during your free initial consultation. We offer payment in stages — you never pay everything upfront. Contact us to get a personalised quote.
