The Tech Nation visa, part of the Global Talent route, is tailored for skilled tech professionals aiming to contribute to the UK’s digital economy. Whether you're a software engineer, AI researcher, or startup founder, this visa opens doors to incredible opportunities.

Tech Nation serves as an endorsing body, assessing applicants’ expertise and potential. There are two paths: Exceptional Talent for established leaders, and Exceptional Promise for rising stars. Candidates must submit evidence such as innovation, business impact, or contributions to the tech ecosystem.

To apply, you need three strong letters of recommendation, a detailed CV, and proof of achievements like projects, publications, or entrepreneurial work. Once Tech Nation endorses your profile, you can apply for the visa through UKVI.

This visa allows you to work freely across the UK tech sector — whether in startups, large firms, or as a freelancer. It also enables you to bring dependents and pursue settlement in 3 or 5 years.

Unlike traditional work visas, there’s no need for a UK job offer, which means greater independence and flexibility.

If you’re an ambitious digital professional, the Tech Nation visa is your gateway to innovation and growth in the UK.
