A Scale-up Worker visa allows you to come to the UK to do an eligible job for a fast-growing UK business (sometimes called a ‘scale-up business’). The Scale-up route is for talented individuals recruited by a UK Scale-up Sponsor, who have the skills needed to enable the Scale-up business to continue growing. The person must have a high-skilled job offer from a qualifying Scale-up business at the required salary level.

The scale-up worker must have the skills needed to enable the business to continue to grow. This means they must:

  • have a job offer at the required skill-level (graduate level or above)
  • be paid at least £33,000 per year or the ‘going rate’ for the occupation code, whichever is the higher of these figures
  • be expected to work for you for at least the first 6 months of their permission
  • speak, understand, read and write English to the required standard

The Scale-up route is a route to settlement which means the application can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) after 5 years residence in the UK under Scale-up visa or in combination with other permitted visa category.
