Youth Mobility Visa UK from India

The Youth Mobility Scheme is an immigration route for young adults from different countries who intend to experience life and culture in the United Kingdom. It is a scheme in which an applicant aged 18-30 or 18 to 35 can stay and work in the UK for up to 2 years of the period. The scheme has replaced the existing route T5 (Temporary Worker) in the UK. However, it depends on where you are from and what your savings are. Generally, you must have £2,530 in savings.

Recently, the UK greenlighted 3,000 Visas for Indian nationals, confirming the UK India Young Professions scheme. The scheme allows 18 to 30 years old graduated Indian citizens to participate in a professional and cultural exchange. The confirmation came hours after PM Modi and Rishi Sunak’s brief meeting, making India the first visa-national country benefitting from the scheme.

Indian applicants are eligible to apply for this visa. However, the decision was made according to the Immigration Rules enforced on 31 December 2021.

Immigrants under this route can seek employment and work without sponsorship during this tenure. One limitation of this route is that immigrants cannot bring in their dependents along with them. They will have to apply separately. Within 2 years, they can get a sponsorship for a Skilled Worker Visa and switch the route.

Before applying, check the requirements of the documents. The applicants will also have to pay the healthcare surcharge as part of their application. Check how much to pay before applying. The applicants applying for the youth mobility visa from outside the UK can apply online. Hong Kong or Taiwan applicants should select the Youth Mobility Scheme Ballot before applying for the visa.
