As we are drawing close to the UK leaving the EEA Treaty Rights and those coming to the UK from EEA National States, will need a visa post 1st January 2021. As part of the flexibility policy, the Home Office are introducing the frontier worker work permit to allow EEA national, to be employed in the UK.
Where you are employed as a frontier worker prior to 31st December 2020, you are permitted to enter the UK until EU rules ends. However post 1st July 2021, you will need to apply for the work visa.
In order to apply for the frontier working visa, you must be living outside of the UK and have started to work in the UK prior to 31st December 2020. The working visa is valid for 5 years and can also apply for a retained frontier work visa if you have worked in the UK for more than 2 years.
Where you have not worked under the working visa, and have entered the UK post 31st December 2020, then you would have to apply under the point based system. You can find more details by clicking here.
At the time of the application, your primary residency should not be the UK and must provide evidences.
