READ ANSWERThe Genuine Sole Rep Test was introduced by the home office in 2013 to help prove that sole reps applying for a Tier 1 sole rep visa were genuine in their plans to start or invest in a UK business.
Assuming that to be genuine, the sole reps would have had to have researched the UK market in order to have decided that the UK was the place for them to set up their business. The home office's approach was to introduce the required business plan in order to prove that the prospective sole reps not only had chosen the UK post research, but also had the knowledge and skills required to invest in or run their business successfully.
In the home office's eyes, a genuine sole rep would never invest £200k in a business without knowing their business model, their competitors, their proposed location and delivery strategy inside out, The business plan is one way the Home Office can assess an Sole Rep’s dedication, expertise and capability to contribute to the UK economy in order to support them being awarded a Tier 1 sole rep visa.
As UK business experts, our goal is not just to have a business plan that supports your application, but also one that assists you post Visa.
We’ve been writing business plans for the Tier 1 VISA scheme since before it was a required document. With over 10 years of experience, we are able to offer law firms and direct sole reps the best service, fully loaded with our money back guarantee. So, if your application is rejected because of a problem with the business plan, we’ll fully refund you.
We are part of the PlanWriter group, writing business plans for companies raising £50m +. We are business specialists, and we treat our visa business plans in the same way that we would treat any other business.
We surround ourselves with experts who routinely advise us on the ever-changing landscape of UK immigration law. Specifically regarding the tier 1 sole rep visa, the sole rep visa and the graduate visa.
We leave the immigration application itself to the professionals. We don't think immigration firms should offer business plan services and we don't provide immigration application support. We know what we are good at and what we're not.
We don't disappear after you've got your VISA. We can connect with you to professional partners for mentorship, marketing, accounting and more.
We work with hundreds of UK businesses, but only a couple are selected for introduction to our visa sole reps. We match based not only on your cv but chemistry and risk awareness.
VisaPlanWriter is always building tools to make our process is better for our clients. For instance, we recently integrated a plagiarism checker to give you peace of mind that our work is 100% unique.
As professional writers and researchers, we have access to 1000's of premium market research reports. This goes over and beyond the fact that we are in the UK ourselves. We know the local markets, we understand effective UK marketing strategies.
One of the most common mistakes a Tier 1 sole rep visa applicant makes is also the biggest. Very often, sole reps copy a business plan from the internet. Home Office officials have a plagiarism checker and can post these practices a mile off. Doing this means your application will be rejected.
All accounts should always be drafted by chartered accountants who have a solid knowledge of the UK tax system. Where clients have attempted this themselves, they have almost always made mistakes. Your financials are crucial to your business plan, and the home office will grill you on them.
For any sole rep starting a business, a business plan is a vital document as it defines your roadmap for the future and helps attract investment and loan offers.
We receive many enquiries from sole reps who tell us they have an MBA or other business qualification. That's great; it will help you run your business. But a tier 1 visa business plan should be simple and ensure that it meets the home office criteria for funds being spent, employees being hired and more.
Your business may not be viable, that's a standard issue with UK business visa applications. Or, it may not need the £200k investment. Using a business plan writing service like ours for your visa application means the first thing we will do is see if your business is viable for the home office.
You can't come to the UK and start 'any' business. You will need to ensure that your business industry/model/idea is in line with the rules of the visa.
