Immigration Requirements

With the exception of new member states, like Romania and Bulgaria, all European Union (EU) citizens are eligible to work in the UK without a work permit.

Individuals from Romania; Bulgaria; Czech Republic; Estonia; Hungary; Latvia; Lithuania; Poland; Slovakia; or Slovenia who plan to work in the UK for an employer for more than a month have to register under the Worker Registration scheme. For more information please visit Home Office website.

This however does not apply if you are set up as self-employed. Geneva Doctors can refer you to a limited company to help you with the process of becoming self-employed, which also provides you with the opportunity to maximise your pay. Geneva Doctors have agreements with two Umbrella Companies, i4 and Liquid Friday.

If you are from outside the EU to find out if you are eligible to work in the UK go to the Home Office website or call the Home Office - UK Border Agency on 0870 606 7766.

If you are from outside the EU, in some cases we can offer sponsorship of Tier 2 Visas. This is only possible in areas of shortage such as Accident and Emergency, Paediatrics, Trauma & Orthopaedics, Senior House Officer and Registrar Grades. This is naturally dependant on what country you come from and will be accessed on a case-by-case basis.
