2020年5月14日,英國(guó)政府發(fā)布了針對(duì)移民法的修正案,今天我們就為大家?guī)?lái)此次修正案里非常關(guān)鍵的修改內(nèi)容-首席代表簽證,這也是目前英國(guó)移民簽證變化較大的類別。
在與移民法修正案同時(shí)推送的Explanatory memorandum: CP 232(修正案的說(shuō)明)文件中,對(duì)于此次首席代表簽證的移民法修改做了一個(gè)歸納,主要改變的分為7個(gè)部分,我們逐條來(lái)看:
1. An amendment is being made to prevent an overseas business sending a representative to facilitate their entry to the UK when there is no genuine intention for them to establish a branch or subsidiary in the UK
這里強(qiáng)調(diào)了申請(qǐng)海外首席代表簽證的申請(qǐng)人所在母公司必須有真實(shí)來(lái)英國(guó)設(shè)立子公司或者分公司的意圖,對(duì)此移民局未來(lái)可能增加類似于英國(guó)企業(yè)家簽證的面試環(huán)節(jié)來(lái)考察申請(qǐng)人過(guò)來(lái)設(shè)立子公司的真實(shí)性,因此那些打算走個(gè)過(guò)場(chǎng),刷刷營(yíng)業(yè)額和雇員的申請(qǐng)人,他們的申請(qǐng)未來(lái)將變得極為困難,反之英國(guó)政府非常鼓勵(lì)和支持那些真正打算赴英國(guó)拓展業(yè)務(wù)的申請(qǐng)人。
2. Clarification is being added to reflect that overseas businesses must be active and trading and intend to maintain their principal place of business outside the UK;
3. An amendment is being made to reflect that applicants must have the skills, experience, knowledge and authority to represent the overseas business in the UK;
4. Clarification is being added to reflect that applicants must be senior employees and cannot engage in their own business or represent any other business in the UK;
5. An amendment is being made to reflect that the ownership of overseas businesses is not limited to businesses that issue shares;
6. An amendment is being made to prevent majority owners from entering as the dependent spouse, civil partner, unmarried or same-sex partner of are presentative of their own business. This will prevent owners circumventing the rules intended to prevent them relocating their business to the UK under this route.
7. An amendment is being made to the extension criteria to clarify that the branch or subsidiary must have been established in the UK, and not overseas.
這次關(guān)于“首席代表”的調(diào)整與其說(shuō)是法案修改,不如說(shuō)是一次對(duì)于要求的細(xì)化解讀,去除了以前的一些灰色地帶,新政策是完全要求申請(qǐng)人的背景為真實(shí)高管,如是去英國(guó)設(shè)立子公司的業(yè)務(wù),修改以后那些沒(méi)有工作經(jīng)歷的應(yīng)屆畢業(yè)生和家庭主婦將變得較難申請(qǐng),而希望通過(guò)臨時(shí)轉(zhuǎn)股給親屬但實(shí)際仍然管理國(guó)內(nèi)公司的申請(qǐng)人也將被拒絕。
同時(shí)我們希望提醒每個(gè)人申請(qǐng)人要注意的是,雖然新法于2020年6月4日在正式生效,按照英國(guó)“老人老辦法新人新辦法”的慣例,生效后才會(huì)執(zhí)行新政標(biāo)準(zhǔn),但是此次與以往不同的是,所有的法案只是強(qiáng)化細(xì)節(jié),但是法律基礎(chǔ)的要求和條款并沒(méi)有變化,也就是說(shuō)新政的細(xì)節(jié)要求其實(shí)在舊政里面也是存在的,建議已經(jīng)申請(qǐng)并獲得首代簽證的人盡量以新政的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)去操作,防止未來(lái)續(xù)簽和轉(zhuǎn)永居碰到問(wèn)題。
