<\/a><\/p>\nWhat kind of visa do you need to visit the UK on business?<\/strong><\/h4>\nThe UK does not have a specific \u2018business visa\u2019. Instead, people travelling to the UK for business purposes can do so on a Standard Visitor visa (which also covers purposes such as tourism). This type of visa allows a visitor to remain in the UK for up to six months (180 days) and do the following business activities:<\/p>\n
\n- attend interviews, meetings, conferences and seminars<\/li>\n
- negotiate and sign deals and contracts<\/li>\n
- attend trade fairs to promote your business (cannot sell things)<\/li>\n
- get work-related training if said training is not available in the visitor\u2019s home country<\/li>\n
- give a one-off or short series of talks as long as they\u2019re not for profit or a commercial event (must not be paid)<\/li>\n
- carry out site visits and inspections<\/li>\n
- oversee the delivery of goods and services provided by a UK company to an overseas company or organisation<\/li>\n
- deliver training or share knowledge on internal projects with UK employees of the company the visitor works for overseas<\/li>\n
- install, dismantle, repair, service or advise on equipment, computer software and hardware, if the overseas company has a contract with a UK company or organisation<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Staff may be permitted to do certain additional activities depending on their job; for example, a translator and\/or interpreter may translate and\/or interpret in the UK as an employee of an enterprise located overseas (see a full list of all visitor activity rules here<\/a>).<\/p>\n
