Paving the Way for a Global Tech Company’s Expansion
Sector: Technology
A US- and India-based AI company sought to establish its UK presence, making it their European hub. Their goal involved moving skilled employees between global entities, hiring locally, and managing frequent business travel across the EMEA region. However, navigating UK immigration and compliance requirements posed a considerable hurdle, with the company needing strategic support for sponsor licensing, compliance setup, and overall workforce management.
Our Approach
We collaborated with the client to develop a customised UK expansion strategy. We successfully obtained a Home Office sponsor licence, allowing the company to transfer essential personnel and hire new talent. Beyond immigration, we established a robust compliance framework covering sponsor duties, Right to Work requirements, and necessary procedural setups, such as visa applications and document preparation.
To address their frequent intra-regional travel, we equipped the client with our business travel assessment tool. This tool proved vital, helping them distinguish permissible business activities from work visa requirements, assess travel risks in real time, and coordinate visa support swiftly as need
Outcome
With our support, the client successfully launched its UK operations, ensuring all staff movements complied with UK regulations. The client now has a reliable immigration management system and uses our business travel assessment tool to streamline travel compliance across EMEA, allowing their operations to grow.
This case underscores Immtell’s commitment to empowering tech companies to navigate international expansion with precision, efficiency, and ease.
