Creative Worker (Temporary Work) Visas
The Creative Worker visa (Temporary Work) is designed for individuals undertaking short-term assignments in the UK’s creative sector, typically for a period of up to 12 months.
This route supports professionals who make a recognised contribution to the industry, including actors, dancers, entertainers, fashion models, and film crew.
To qualify, applicants must have a confirmed offer of work from a UK sponsor holding a Temporary Worker – Creative Worker Sponsor Licence. The role must meet the minimum salary requirements set by the relevant industry body – Equity, PACT, or BECTU – depending on the nature of the work.
Our Immigration team regularly advises production companies on assigning Certificates of Sponsorship (CoS) for short-term creative roles. We provide strategic guidance throughout the process, ensuring compliance with sponsorship duties.
If you require tailored advice or support with the Creative Worker visa, please contact our Immigration team. We offer responsive, sector-specific assistance to help your production move forward with confidence.
