Move Up guides
Global Talent concerns leaders or potential leaders in specified fields. It is different from treating every qualified or experienced professional as eligible for the same route.
The route covers academia or research, arts and culture, and digital technology. An endorsement is normally relevant, with a separate provision for holders of eligible prestigious prizes. General career success does not by itself establish the applicable criteria.
The professional record and the relevant route criteria need to be considered together. An endorsement and immigration permission are distinct decisions. Discuss your field and achievements to understand whether a focused review would be useful.
Tell us what you would like to make possible and where you need clarity. We can discuss the appropriate support for your circumstances.
