You can apply for a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) visa if you have access to £200,000 in investment funds and you can prove that the money is either:
- your own
- made available to you by other people (‘third parties’), such as a spouse, partner or investor
- in a joint account with your spouse or partner but only if they are not applying for a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) visa
What about Previous investment?
You can also apply if you’ve previously invested £200,000 in a UK business. You must have invested the funds less than 12 months before you apply.
Additional Conditions & eligibility
You must also:
- meet the English language requirement
- be able to support yourself during your stay

- provide all the documents needed for evidence of the funds with your own applications
