The UK government created an immigration route for British National (Overseas) passport holders and their dependants. Launched on 31 January 2021, the BN(O) Visa allows them to enter the UK with the ability to live and work there, subject to conditions, and provide them with a path to apply for British citizenship. Details of the visa can be found on the UK government website.
Invest and Consult provides a realistically priced menu of special services for the new BNO visa. These cover initial applications through to assistance with finding employment, relocation and education. We understand the concerns of BNO passport holders for security when sharing information and a quality service at a highly competitive price. Our services are supported by a professional, friendly and dedicated Cantonese-speaking team experienced in providing tax, property and legal support services.
