The UK’s Global Talent visa is for individuals at both the established and early stages of the career in academia or research, arts and culture and digital technology to come to the UK under attractive visa conditions.
As a more flexible immigration option than other UK work visas, the Global Talent visa does not require job offer or sponsorship by an employer, and does not place restrictions on the type of work you can do within your field.
The Global Talent visa also offers fast-tracked settlement in the UK for eligible individuals. If you meet the criteria as a talented individual, you may be eligible for UK settlement after 3 years. If you are considered a promising talent, you may be eligible after 5 years. With settlement, you are on the path to naturalise as a British citizen.
While appealing as an immigration route, the application process for the Global Talent visa can appear convoluted. Before you can apply to the Home Office for the visa, you first have to either secure formal endorsement for your professional capabilities, or have been in receipt of a ‘prestigious prize’ for work in your field.
In this guide, we explain the eligibility and procedural requirements that Global Talent visa holders have to meet, to help you approach your application full informed and with confidence.
Section A: What is the Global Talent Visa?
Replacing the Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa in 2020, the Global Talent route was designed to attract talented and promising professionals in the fields of science, digital technology and arts and culture to work in the UK.
While the requirements are notably less extensive than those of other work visas under the UK’s new points-based immigration system. applicants still have to meet a number of eligibility requirements, and in most cases will need to be endorsed, unless you have an award listed in ‘Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes’, in which case you are exempt from the endorsement requirement and can apply for the visa straightaway.
There is no minimum salary threshold or English language test for the Global Talent route, although the endorsing body may impose its own language requirement.
Applicants do not have to find a job to be eligible for this visa, and you have the option to take up paid employment, to work for yourself as self-employed or to become a director of a company, although any work should be within the field for which you have been endorsed. Studying is also permitted, subject to the Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) conditions.
If you are employed and then subsequently change employers or jobs, you will not need to notify the Home Office (unlike under the skilled worker visa).
Qualifying dependants can accompany Global Talent participants, and it is possible to apply from overseas, or to switch within the UK from other UK visa categories.
It is also a relatively flexible route for visa holders. Applicants can apply for visas of between one year and five years, in full-year increments. This means that while it is possible to apply to extend the visa, in most cases the individual will become eligible for UK indefinite leave to remain after a single period of leave, ie after 3 years if exceptional talent, and after 5 years if a promising talent.
For employers, the Global Talent route offers a flexible and less onerous alternative to hiring under the Skilled Worker Visa, since the Global Talent route does not require sponsorship by an employer and organisations hiring individuals under the Global Talent route will not have to pay the costs associated with sponsoring workers such as the Immigration Skills Charge.
Section B: Global Talent Visa Eligibility Requirements
Global Talent visa applicants must be aged 18 or over, and be able to demonstrate that they are leaders or potential leaders in their field.
1. Qualifying Fields
The Global Talent route is open both to established talent – individuals who can demonstrate they are already leaders in their respective field – as well as applicants showing ‘promise’ and potential to become leaders in their field.
The Global Talent visa is open to individuals from a broad range of fields, reflecting the diverse nature of talent the UK aims to attract. These fields include, but are not limited to:
a. Digital Technology: This encompasses professionals working in software development, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence, and other areas at the cutting edge of technology.
b. Arts and Culture: Artists, musicians, writers, actors, and other cultural professionals who have made significant contributions to their fields are eligible. This category values creative excellence and innovation.
c. Academia and Research: Scholars and researchers in the sciences, humanities, and social sciences are also eligible. This includes those conducting groundbreaking research, publishing influential papers, and holding academic positions at prestigious institutions.
2. Demonstrating Leadership or Potential Leadership
Importantly, before you can apply to the Home Office for a Global Talent visa, you must first either obtain endorsement from the relevant authorised endorsing body, or have been awarded qualifying industry recognition, as listed in Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes, to prove that you meet the necessary standard of professional achievement.
If relying on endorsement, applicants must be endorsed by a recognised body in their field, which confirms their status as leaders or potential leaders. The endorsement bodies are responsible for assessing and validating the credentials of applicants within their respective specialist fields.
You may be able to bypass the endorsement stage if you have been award a prize as listed in Appendix Prestigious Prizes. This is a list of awards recognised by the UK government as demonstrating exceptional talent that meets the requirements of the Global Talent Visa. These prizes are considered so prestigious that recipients are automatically eligible for the visa without needing endorsement from one of the endorsing bodies.
If you have won one of these prizes, you can use this information to support your Global Talent Visa application, which can significantly expedite the process.
Section C: Global Talent Visa Based on Endorsement
For most applicants, the application process for the Global Talent visa is in two stages. Without a prize as listed in Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes, first, you apply to be endorsed by an approved body. Only with endorsement can you proceed to apply for the actual visa from the Home Office.
The endorsing bodies are charged with assessing applications from individuals within their respective professional fields, and developing and applying sector-specific criteria and evidential requirements for applications. The relevant endorsing bodies will then make an endorsement decision based on your profile and the evidence you provide.
The six Global Talent visa endorsing bodies are:
| Global Talent Endorsing Body | Field of Expertise |
Example Professions
|
|---|---|---|
| The Royal Society | Science and Medicine |
Researchers, Professors, Scientists
|
| The Royal Academy of Engineering | Engineering |
Mechanical Engineers, Civil Engineers
|
| The British Academy | Humanities |
Historians, Sociologists, Economists
|
| UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) | Science and Research | Principal investigator, Postdoctoral researcher |
| Tech Nation | Digital Technology |
Software Engineers, Data Scientists
|
| Arts Council England | Arts and Culture |
Artists, Musicians, Writers
|
This list of endorsing bodies is subject to ongoing review.
Each body has its own endorsement criteria and process, based in large on the following:
a. Exceptional Talent criteria: to assess individuals who can evidence they have already made a significant contribution as a leader to their field.
b. Exceptional Promise criteria: for applicants at an early stage in their careers who have shown the potential for being a future leader and making significant contributions in their field.
There are four routes to endorsement under the Global Talent category applicable to different roles:
a. Peer review – endorsement of applications by The British Academy, the Royal Academy of Engineering or The Royal Society.
b. Senior appointments – endorsement for applicants with a job offer as a professor, associate professor, reader, senior group leader or equivalent at any UK higher education institution or eligible research institute, by the British Academy, the Royal Academy of Engineering, and The Royal Society.
c. Fellowships – endorsement for those with an individual fellowship (either current or held within the last 12 months), on the list approved by The British Academy, the Royal Academy of Engineering and Royal Society.
d. Endorsed funders – a visa route for researchers who make critical contributions to work supported by grant funding from a recognised funder. Qualifying applicants will be fast tracked to the Home Office visa application stage with minimal evidential requirements, where they meet the individual eligibility criteria. UKRI will be responsible for assessing endorsed funded applications.
1. Global Talent Visa Endorsement in Digital Technology
Within the digital technology sector, Tech Nation is the appointed endorsing body. Under current rules, there is no restriction on the number of Global Talent visas that can be issued to eligible applicants within this sector and endorsement by Tech Nation in the field of Digital Technology must either be:
a. an applicant with technical skills who can establish their proficiency in creating technological infrastructure and constructing, utilising, or exploiting technology stacks; or
b. a candidate for a business position who can offer evidence of their demonstrated commercial, investment, or product competence in creating digital products or managing investments in big digital product enterprises.
Tech Nation requires proof to qualify for endorsement. For example, you should provide a CV that details your work and publishing history, as well as three letters of recommendation with your application to Tech Nation for a Digital Technology endorsement.
The letters of recommendation must come from three different, reputable organisations that are recognised as authorities in the field of digital technology. They must demonstrate how the author knows you, your successes in your profession, how the author feels that you show remarkable potential or promise and the impact you will make to the UK digital economy.
2. Global Talent Visa Endorsement in Film & Television
Talented people in the areas of cinema and television who want to work in the UK may be eligible under the Global Talent visa route. The number of candidates who can be endorsed under the Global Talent route’s Film and Television subcategory is unlimited.
The Producers’ Alliance for Film and Television (PACT) will assess applicants’ eligibility for endorsement in the film, television, animation, post-production, and visual effects sectors on behalf of Arts Council England. Those who work in the animation, post-production, visual effects, and film sectors, however, will need to exhibit “extraordinary skill.” PACT does not support applications with “great promise.”
3. Global Talent Visa Endorsement in Architecture
The Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) (on behalf of Arts Council England), will determine whether applicants are industry leaders or have the potential to be leaders in their fields.
The number of candidates that can be supported under the Global Talent route’s Architecture subcategory has no cap.
To be endorsed by the Royal Institute of British Architects you will need to be professionally employed as an architect generating work of excellent quality which has been published, presented or exhibited abroad.
You must have been regularly engaged as a professional architect in the last 5 years and be able to show a substantial track record in more than one country (if applying under Exceptional Talent criteria) or a developing track record in one or more countries if applying under Exceptional Promise criteria.
4. Visa Endorsement in Science, Engineering, Humanities & Medicine
There is no limit to the number of candidates who can be endorsed under the Global Talent route’s subcategory of Science, Engineering, Humanities, and Medicine.
The Royal Society (for applications in natural and medical sciences), the Royal Academy of Engineering (for applications in engineering), the British Academy (for applications in humanities and social sciences), or UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) will determine whether applicants are leaders in their fields or have the potential to be leaders for science and research applications.
Whether you are applying under the Fast Track or Full Peer Review criteria will determine what requirements you must fulfil for endorsement.
5. Global Talent Visa Endorsement in Arts & culture
Applications in the fields of combined arts, dance, literature, music, theatre, and visual arts are assessed by Arts Council England, including those working in an artistic context in galleries and museums. Applicants must be industry leaders or have the potential to be leaders.
There is no restriction on the number of candidates who can be supported under the Global Talent route’s Arts and Culture subcategory.
You must be professionally creating work of exceptional quality that has been performed, presented, distributed, or exhibited abroad in order to be eligible for an Arts and Culture endorsement from Arts Council England.
If you are applying on the basis of exceptional talent, you must have consistently worked as a professional practitioner in your area for the last five years and be able to demonstrate a significant track record in more than one nation or a developing track record in one or more countries if applying on the basis of Exceptional Promise.
6. Global Talent Visa Endorsement in Fashion
The British Fashion Council (BFC), on behalf of Arts Council England, will consider whether applicants are leaders in their fields currently or have the potential to become leaders.
The British Fashion Council can endorse applications from people working in the fashion design sector who play key roles in the industry.
The number of candidates that can be endorsed under the Global Talent route’s fashion sector subcategory is unlimited.
Section D: Global Talent Visa Based on Prestigious Prizes
Global Talent applications are also open to individuals who hold one of the prestigious prizes as listed in Appendix Global Talent: Prestigious Prizes of the Immigration Rules. These prizes have been identified by the Global Talent endorsing bodies as demonstrating exceptional talent.
If you are the named recipient of one of the qualifying prestigious prize, you would be eligible to apply for a Global Talent visa without the need to obtain endorsement.
This means you benefit from a fast-tracked application process as you are exempt from having to secure endorsement and can proceed straight to the visa application stage.
There are no stipulations as to when you must have received the prize. This means you could rely on a prize that is recent or was awarded several years ago, provided your award has not since been withdrawn.
Section E: How to Apply for a Global Talent Visa
Global Talent visa applications are made online, either within the UK under the switching process, or from overseas.
If you are outside the UK, you can apply for entry clearance at the nearest visa appointment centre in your country of residence.
If you are in the UK, you can apply online to switch to the Global Talent visa if you currently hold lawful status under any of the following visa categories:
a. Start Up
b. Innovator
c. Tier 1
d. Skilled worker, Tier 2
e. Tier 5
f. Student, Tier 4, with the exception of Short Term Student Visa
If you are relying on a prestigious prize for your application, you can complete the online application form straightaway.
If you’re relying on endorsement, it is possible to apply for your visa before securing endorsement, however, should your endorsement not be approved, your visa application will also be refused. If you have successfully been endorsed, you will receive an email from the Home Office with a copy of the endorsement letter, at which point you have three months to make your visa application. If your application is refused, you may be able to request an endorsement review.
The endorsement application has to satisfy the validity requirements. This includes ensuring you complete the correct application form(s), pay the correct endorsement fee and endorsement must have been secured from the relevant body in the relevant professional field.
You then need to ensure the visa application is also valid. You will need to use the correct form, pay all relevant fees including the Immigration Health Charge, submit any required biometrics, submit all required supporting documentation including the endorsement letter by a Home Office approved endorsing body.
To be granted a Global Talent visa, you have to meet the suitability requirements, and not be liable for grounds for refusal by being in breach of immigration laws or on immigration bail.
You will also have to show you meet the eligibility requirements, i.e. you will either already be internationally recognised at the highest level as a leader in your particular field or have already demonstrated exceptional promise and are likely to become leaders in their particular field.
Finally, you will have to prove you have attained the required 70 points:
Application type |
Global Talent visa: 70 points |
| Global talent visa application |
|
| Global talent visa extension application |
|
Section F: Global Talent Visa Supporting Documents
As part of your visa application to the Home Office, you will need to submit:
a. A valid passport or another document that confirms your identity and nationality.
b. Your tuberculosis test results if you are from a country where this test is mandatory.
c. If you have received an award or scholarship to study in the UK within the past year, you will also need written permission to apply from the agency or government that awarded it.
If any of your documents are not in English or Welsh, you will need to supply a certified translation.
You will also need a blank page in your passport for your visa if you are from outside the EU, EEA, or Switzerland, or from the EU, EEA, or Switzerland but do not have a biometric passport with an embedded chip.
If you have received an eligible award, the Home Office will verify this using publicly available information (such as the awarding organisation’s website). You will only be asked to provide evidence if they cannot confirm it through these sources.
Section G: Application Fees & Processing Times
It costs £716 to apply for the Global Talent visa, from either overseas or in the UK.
Applicants applying based on endorsement will pay this in two parts: £524 when applying for endorsement, and £192 when applying to the Home Office for the visa.
Applicants applying based on a prestigious award have to pay the full £716 with their visa application.
Dependant applications also cost £716 each.
Applicants will also need to pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for each year of leave. The full amount needs to be paid when applying.
Read our full guide to the Immigration Healthcare Surcharge here >>
Global Talent Visa Processing Times
The endorsement stage typically takes a month, although digital technology applicants may be able to apply to have their endorsement fast-tracked.
Visa processing times vary depending on where you are applying from. If you are applying from outside the UK, processing currently takes 3 weeks, while applications from within the UK usually take 8 weeks.
You may be able to pay for faster processing under the priority service (decision in 5 working days) or super priority service (next working day decision). These are available for an additional fee of £500 and £1000 respectively per application. You will be advised when making your application if these services are available to you.
You can read our comprehensive guide to UK visa processing times here >>
Section H: Visa Duration & Extensions
Further flexibility is offered to applicants in respect of the duration of their grant of leave. Global Talent applicants can choose to apply for leave in whole year increments of up to five years. The benefit to applicants is that they will have to pay the Immigration Health Surcharge only for the period of leave they require, eg three years as opposed to five years.
It is also possible to apply to extend your visa, provided you remain eligible. For example, if your endorsement has been withdrawn, you will be required to make a completely new application.
Existing Tier 1 Exceptional Talent leave holders are also able to apply to extend their visa under the Global Talent category. Tier 1 Exceptional talent holders will be able to apply for UK settlement without having to switch to the Global Talent category.
Section I: UK Settlement
Global Talent visa holders can become eligible to apply for UK ILR, provided they meet all of the ILR requirements. Global Talent visa holders can become eligible to apply for UK settlement after either 3 or 5 years:
| Global talent visa | Settlement qualifying period |
| Applicants endorsed by the endorsing bodies responsible for science, engineering, humanities and medicine granted under “promise” criteria, “talent” criteria or the new endorsed funder option. | Eligible for UK settlement after 3 years |
| Digital technology and arts and culture applicants under “promise” criteria | Eligible for UK settlement after 5 years |
A further advantage of the Global Talent visa over other work visa categories is that time spent in the UK under certain other immigration categories can count towards your residence requirement for ILR. If you have been in the UK with lawful status under any of the following visas, you are able to include that period of leave within your qualifying residence:
a. Any Tier 1 visa – except Tier 1 (Graduate Entrepreneur)
b. Tier 2 (General) or Skilled Worker
c. Scale-up Worker
d. Tier 2 (Minister of Religion) or T2 Minister of Religion
e. Tier 2 (Sportsperson) or T2 Sportsperson
f. Innovator
g. Representative of an Overseas Business
Researchers endorsed by the endorsing bodies responsible for science, engineering, humanities and medicine who spend time outside of the UK for research purposes will not be penalised in their settlement application for absences from the UK directly relating to their field of expertise. The general rule when applying for UK ILR is that you cannot have spent more than 180 days outside the UK within any 12 months during the period of qualifying residence. However, if you have a Global Talent visa, time you’ve spent outside the UK doing work related to your job may not count towards this 180-day limit. This rule applies if you were endorsed by the Royal Society, Royal Academy of Engineering, British Academy or UK Research and Innovation. It also applies if you did not need an endorsement for your visa because you had won an eligible award in the fields of science, engineering, humanities or medicine.
This means you will, for example, need to show you meet the residence requirement and that you have been earning money from work linked to your endorsement field during your stay in the UK. This does not mean you have to have been employed during your visa period; you will need to show you have earned money during this period but this could have been through self-employment. You also do not necessarily have to have worked for the full period of leave. You just need to show that you have earned money during this time.
Once endorsed, Global Talent visa holders would usually not need to reapply for endorsement as part of an extension or settlement application, provided the endorsement has not been withdrawn.

Section J: Benefits of the Global Talent Visa
The Global Talent visa offers numerous advantages that make it an attractive option for highly skilled professionals seeking to advance their careers and lives in the UK.
One of the primary benefits of the Global Talent visa is the significant work flexibility and freedom it provides. Unlike many other visa types that tie the holder to a specific employer or job, the Global Talent visa allows individuals to work for any employer, be self-employed, or even establish their own business. This flexibility empowers professionals to pursue the most suitable and rewarding opportunities without being restricted by visa limitations.
The visa also offers a clear path to Uk settlement, which is a highly attractive prospect for many applicants. After holding the Global Talent visa for three to five years, depending on their circumstances and achievements, visa holders can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR). Achieving ILR status allows individuals to live and work in the UK without time restrictions, providing long-term stability and the ability to plan for the future with greater certainty.
Opportunities for family members to join the visa holder in the UK is another significant benefit of the Global Talent visa. Spouses, partners, and children under 18 can apply for dependant visas, allowing families to stay together while pursuing their aspirations in the UK.
Section K: Summary
The Global Talent Visa presents an exciting opportunity for professionals to pursue UK-based opportunities for both career and personal development. This visa route is designed to attract the world’s leading talent, providing a pathway to not only advance your work opportunities, but also to immerse yourself in life in the UK. However, the endorsement and application process can be daunting, necessitating careful preparation and diligent management to ensure that all eligibility and procedural requirements are met.
Section L: Need Assistance?
