Free Webinar: Understanding the UK’s new immigration measures

Register now to learn how the government’s recent white paper on UK immigration, “Restoring Control over the Immigration System,” will impact your business’s ability to recruit skilled overseas professionals.

The proposals announced by the UK government represent the most significant shift in immigration policy since Brexit. With a focus on ensuring migration continues to decline from the high levels of recent years and prioritising the training of UK workers over overseas recruitment, UK businesses have been put on notice.

The 76-page immigration white paper presents several key proposals, including the restriction on Skilled Worker visas to RQF6+ (graduate-level) roles, increased English language requirements for visa holders and dependants, and an extension of the standard qualifying period for settlement to ten years.

UK immigration experts share insights

How will these changes affect UK businesses seeking to attract international talent? What will be the additional costs for relocating an assignee and their employer to the UK?

Join our UK immigration experts, Alastair Mason and Antonio Lam as they share valuable insights into the upcoming immigration reforms. In this informative webinar, they will break down the white paper and provide practical guidance on how businesses can prepare and adapt to these changes.

Don’t miss this opportunity to stay ahead in an evolving landscape.
