Applying for a UK Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) visa is the first step towards working and living in the UK for skilled workers from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland.
The HSMP visa offers many benefits, including the ability to work in the UK for up to 5 years initially, with the potential to extend your stay indefinitely. HSMP visa holders can also bring their family members to the UK, and they are eligible for permanent residency after 5 years of continuous residence.
