Who

If you are aged 18-30 and from an eligible country, you may be able to come to the UK to live and work for up to 2 years under this route.

When

The earliest you can apply for this visa is 6 months before your intended date of travel, and you should get a decision within 3 weeks of applying.

Where

You must apply from outside the UK.

You must be between the ages of 18 and 30 (inclusive) to qualify for this route. You must also be a national from an eligible country, which includes: 

 Australia, New Zealand, Canada, Japan, Monaco, Taiwan, Hong Kong or Republic of Korea. Each country has an allocated number of places for the scheme each year, some having a ballot system in place to select applicants.
