UK Start-up Visa Program
A complete tool kit to allow you to apply: example business plans, template supporting documents, success case studies and step-by-step instructions to apply
My start-up visa for the UK was granted and I am now in the UK beginning my business!
This is going really well, and I am happy to share my experience and tips in this program. I talk about the business plan process, how to get the endorsement letter, and all of the steps that you need to take once you are in the UK.
I share with you the documents that I submitted and the process I went through in applying for the endorsement. I look forward to seeing you inside the program!

I prepared my business plan successfully and it was accepted by the endorsing body. In this course, I talk through my business plan, the various elements that need to be considered, and talk about the important elements of the process which you need to know. I successfully applied to the pre-cursor visa of the start up visa. I had a great experience in the UK on my visa, and have produced this course to help you reach the same success that I enjoyed. See you in the course.
