UK Temporary Worker - Government Authorised Exchange Visa

The GAE visa application process involves crucial stages, including eligibility assessment, certificate of sponsorship procurement, and application submission. Our team at Immtell is adept at guiding applicants through each stage, ensuring an efficient and smooth application process. The basic requirements of the GAE visa are:

You want to come to the UK for a short time for work experience or to do training, an Overseas Government Language Programme, research or a fellowship through an approved government-authorised exchange scheme.

You must obtain sponsorship from a registered GAE sponsor. Upon sponsorship, you will be issued a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS), like an online UK work permit. The sponsor can be any of the following:

• an organisation running an approved exchange scheme
• a higher education institution (if a sponsored researcher, visiting academic or examiner)
• a government department or agency.

You must have held £1,270 in savings for 28 days before the date of application, or an A-rated Home Office sponsor may certify that they will provide this on the CoS. Further funds must be held for each dependant family member applying.
