The Brexit transition period having ended on the 31st December 2020 marked the anticipation of the UK’s full departure from the EU becoming a reality. In response to this, to support the implications that this will have for our member companies, the Spanish Chamber of Commerce in the UK is organising a series of technical webinars covering what this means for different sectors and the key considerations for doing business with the UK post-Brexit. These will all be held in collaboration with different departments of the British Government.
The second of these will be on the topic of the new UK migration rules post-Brexit and we shall be joined by senior guest speakers from the Home Office. This Government department is responsible for immigration, security and law and order.
The guest speaker will be addressing the following topics:
– An overview of the new points-based immigration system
– The visa application process
– Visiting the UK
– EU citizens who were living in the UK prior to the 31st December 2020 and how to prove your immigration status
– Skilled workers
The discussion will be followed by a Q&A with the keynote speaker and her colleagues Richard Jackson and Ragnar Clifford who are both policy leads on the new immigration system at the Home Office. We therefore invite delegates to join the webinar with pre-prepared questions about how the new regulations for migration between the UK and Spain will affect your business.
Date: Tuesday 9th March, 11:00 – 12:00 GMT / 12:00 – 13:00 CET
