Growth isn't just about attracting top talent—it's about deploying it where it matters most. Take the monumental King Salman Stadium in Riyadh, the centrepiece for the 2034 FIFA World Cup. Projects like this demand skilled talent on the ground quickly. That's where the Saudi Arabia Temporary Work Visa comes into play, simplifying global workforce mobility for businesses. Here's how this visa supports your UK construction business's international ambitions 👇🏼 #SaudiArabia #Visa #Immigration #BusinessInsights #GlobalExpansion #CenturoGlobal

When growth is your goal, attracting top talent is the key. For UK tech businesses in a high-growth phase, the UK Scale-Up visa is a game-changer. It allows you to sponsor skilled workers, entrepreneurs, and innovators to build a world-class team that drives your competitiveness. Often overshadowed by the Skilled Worker visa (a hot topic at our recent workshop), the Scale-Up visa offers fewer hurdles and lower costs—a compelling choice for ambitious businesses.

**UK Immigration: HC 334 - Statement of Changes** Statement of Changes released by the Home Office have issued a plethora of changes to the UK Immigration rules and two of the most prominent changes are stipulated below: 1. Nationals of Colombia have been added to the UK Visa National List. Also, Colombia has been removed from the ETA national list. Colombian nationals who hold a confirmed booking to the UK made before 15:00 GMT on 26 November 2024 must travel to the UK no later than 15:00 GMT 24 December 2024 without a visitor visa. 2. A new 18-month Ukraine Permission Extension (UPE) scheme is being introduced from 4 February 2025. The HO are therefore, fully closing the Ukraine extension scheme and ending the use of permission to travel (PTT) letters. They are also amending the Long Residence (LR) rules so that any time spent on the Ukraine schemes, including the new UPE will not count towards the 10-year qualifying period for LR. The Ukraine Permission scheme will not lead to Indefinite Leave To Remain in the UK. Staying compliant with constantly evolving immigration rules is vital— We at Centuro Global are here to help your business navigate these changes seamlessly.
