While there is no specific self-sponsorship visa for the UK, there are several visa options that allow individuals to work for themselves. The most common route is the Skilled Worker Visa, and the Innovator Founder Visa offers an alternative for entrepreneurs looking to establish a new business in the UK.

Self-sponsorship allows non-UK citizens to move to the UK by setting up or acquiring a business and sponsoring their own visa.

This involves three key steps:

1. Establish a UK Business: Set up a compliant company that meets UK legal requirements.
2. Obtain a Sponsor Licence: The business applies for authorisation to sponsor employees. 
3. Business Owner Sponsorship: Once the business is approved, the owner can be sponsored by their own company to apply for the Skilled Worker Visa.
    

This process provides entrepreneurs and business owners with the flexibility to sponsor themselves through their own business, rather than relying on an employer.

• Establish a business and relocate to the UK.
• Be both the employer and the sponsored employee.
• Greater control over your professional development.
• Access to the UK labor market as a self-sponsored entrepreneur.
