A Case Study By Kingsley Napley LLP

We have assisted numerous overseas businesses who wish to set up operations in the UK. This has included our corporate, commercial and finance team assisting with setting up a UK subsidiary of the overseas business and helping to appoint a UK company secretary. On the immigration side we have advised in relation to the necessary documentation to show the company is trading and operational in the UK. This includes registrations for tax and insurance purposes, finding office premises and opening a UK bank account. Once the documentation is in place we advise on the sponsor licence application and compliance requirements. After approval of the sponsor licence application we assist with the subsequent Skilled Worker or Senior/Specialist Worker visa applications so staff of the overseas business can work in the UK. Our employment team has also assisted with employment law considerations.
