Work permit (United Kingdom)

The UK Work Permit scheme was an immigration category designed to encourage skilled workers to enter the United Kingdom (UK). It was operational until November 2008, when it was replaced by the points-based immigration system. The scheme provided opportunities for overseas citizens seeking to gain international work experience in the UK and facilitated the transfer of key personnel from outside the European Economic Area (EEA) region.
