As set out in the Spring Budget, the Home Office is undertaking a review of the current UK visitor rules to make it easier and more attractive to do business in the UK. As part of this review, we continue to work with other government departments and their stakeholders to look at how we can expand the range of short-term business activities that can be carried out for up to 6 months and including on the permitted paid activities visitors can undertake. Changes made to the UK visitor offer will be reflected through updates to the published Immigration Rules from Autumn 2023.
