migrate via Tier 1 General Entrepreneur visa.
The correct term for this visa is 'Tier 1 Entrepreneur', no 'general' in the visa category name.

1. Most businesses are allowed. Main exceptions are property management & development. Franchises are fine.
2. No requirement for prior business experience however HO does try to evaluate if you are genuine and can deliver on your business plan.
3. If you are a genuine entrepreneur and provide all the correct documentation the chances are very high. It is a points based system !!
