This informational webinar by Scotland’s Migration Service is for Scottish-based organisations and employers about the transition to e-Visa and what it means for managing their international workforce.
About the webinar
This webinar will provide an overview of the e-Visa system, which is gradually replacing physical immigration documents such as Biometric Resident Permits. It will cover the current stage of the UKVI e-Visa rollout, explaining its significance and how it impacts both employers and international workers. You will learn how to manage employees’ new e-Visas as well as employees with older legacy documents to ensure compliance during the transition.
The session will also provide practical advice on travel considerations with e-Visas, accessing Home Office assistance for queries, and understanding the benefits and challenges of the new system.
This information is essential for HR professionals, hiring managers, and employers navigating immigration compliance in their organisations.
