Setting Up a Business in the UK

To prosper on a global scale, businesses face constant challenges to develop and expand their operations in countries across the world in a bid for corporate success. An important consideration for any organisation wishing to establish a branch or subsidiary in another country must be whether their business will be a success.

Our specialist immigration team is able to advise on the intricacies of establishing your company in the UK, including the transfer of a sole representative, the transfer of workers from your overseas parent organisation, and the recruitment of talent from outside of your existing organisation.
