Can Tier 2 Visa(General) open PVT LTD company?

Post by cool_doc » Wed Oct 14, 2015 11:01 pm

Hello,

I was wondering if a doctor on tier 2 visa (general) can open their own PVT LTD company (as supplementary work) provided they meet criteria of working same kind of work for less than 20 hr/week ??

I know this has been discussed quite a while ago, but I was thinking if any new changes to law? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

No changes. No you cannot start any sort of company.

You sure?

Anyone can open a Ltd company in UK, even those living abroad. Working in/for it in the UK is a vastly different issue though.....

Ok, but you know what I meant! It's the working bit that's tricky...
