لمن هذا الدليل

For visits and study, Skilled Worker sponsorship, Global Talent, and families counting five years to ILR.

الزيارة ومدة الإقامة

Many previously visa-free passports now need ETA before travel. Chinese passports usually need a Standard Visitor visa. Visits are typically six months, with no work and no in-country switch to a work visa.

العمل والإقامة

The main work route is Skilled Worker (sponsor, skill and salary floors), plus Global Talent, Graduate and Health and Care. Students may move to Graduate, policy permitting. Dependants can join subject to funds.

الإقامة الدائمة والجنسية

Most work routes reach ILR at five years with continuous residence, salary and English. Citizenship is often about 12 months after ILR (different for some spouses). Long absences reset the clock.

Time to PR：Usually 5 years; some 3; long residence 10
