Application pathway

  1. Check the route fit

    Confirm the business visit is not employment or oil-and-gas project work requiring another category.

  2. Build the evidence pack

    Select the correct legal-entity, public-entity or individual evidence path.

  3. Submit through the official channel

    Submit the online business eVisa file and pay through the official platform.

  4. After approval

    Print the preliminary approved eVisa and carry the listed documents for arrival checks.

After approval: prepare for your next step

For Business eVisa, use the actual decision and the issuing authority’s instructions to establish what has been granted. A successful application, permission to enter, permission to work and a residence document are not interchangeable.

  1. 1. Check the decision. Confirm the name, passport, status granted, start date and any next action. Resolve an error with the authority before relying on the document for travel or employment.
  2. 2. Establish the travel step. Read any entry window, activation, collection or in-country registration instruction. For an extension or change of status, do not assume leaving the country is required or safe while a further step remains pending.
  3. 3. Confirm what you may do. Agree the lawful start date and onboarding with the employer or sponsor. Check whether the permission names an employer, role or activity before changing the arrangement.
  4. 4. Organise the household. Check each accompanying person’s permission separately, then arrange healthcare, accommodation, access to money and the relevant local registrations. A tax number or bank account does not by itself prove a right to work.
  5. 5. Keep the ongoing conditions visible. Record the actual expiry, renewal process, permitted absences and any duty to report changes. An initial grant does not automatically establish permanent residence or citizenship.
