Tier 2 visa

A Tier 2 visa is a type of work visa in the UK that allows skilled workers from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) to live and work in the country. To qualify, applicants must have a job offer from a UK employer that holds a valid sponsorship license. The position must meet certain skill and salary requirements. This visa is designed to fill gaps in the UK labor market for specific professions. It typically allows holders to live in the UK for an initial period, with the possibility of extension and a route to permanent residency.
