Overview
You can apply for an Innovator visa if:
- you want to set up or run a business in the UK
- you’re from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland
- you meet the other eligibility requirements
- your business or business idea has been endorsed by an approved body
You must have at least £50,000 in investment funds if you want to set up a new business. You
do not need funds if your business is already established and has been endorsed for an earlier
visa.
Getting endorsed
You must be able to show that your business idea is:
- a new idea – you cannot join or invest in a business that is already trading
- viable, with potential for growth
Read the endorsing bodies list – you should only approach ones that are suitable for your
business idea.
How long it takes to get a visa
The earliest you can apply is 3 months before you travel.
