急问: 关于英国签证Business Visit及工作签证

irvine

最简单的就是business visa，多次往返，6个月有效，这个非常容易，材料齐全，当天就可以取。 你如果呆一年的话， 申请两次就够了。
英国工作签证比较麻烦， 如果你不是relocation, 最好不要麻烦自己。

德国是不行的。以德国为例，3个月的商务签证，一年最多颁发两次。换言之，持商务visum每年只能在德国停留最多半年。

刚才看了一下，你果然想当然了，无论英国德国都有类似限制。只不过英国稍有不同，多于6个月的Visa，也只能一年最多停留180天。

官方网站：

How long can I stay in the UK as a visitor?

Visitors can stay in the UK for a maximum of six months at any one time.  The only three exceptions to this rule are Academic Visitors and the parents of children at school who can stay for up to 12 months and please see the separate section on visitors for private medical treatment.

A  general visit, business, entertainer or sports visit visa may be valid for 1, 2, 5 or 10 years. However, you are still only entitled to stay in the UK for a maximum of 180 days (6 months). A 2 year visit visa does not mean you are entitled to stay in the UK for 2 years, for example. We recommend that you limit your stay to the period stated on your visa application or to a maximum of 180 days within a 12 month period.  Lengthy periods spent in the UK as a visitor may cause an immigration or visa officer to doubt your intentions. If you breach the conditions attached to your entry to the UK, you face a future ban of up to 10 years.


You should give careful consideration before applying for a long term visit visa valid for 1, 2, 5 or 10 years as there is the possibility that the visa may be refused, or issued for a shorter period than you have applied for. This could happen if the evidence you provide does not support a long term visit visa application or does not meet the entry clearance criteria. If the application is refused or the visa is issued for a shorter period, you will not be refunded your application fee. Although there is no requirement for you to have held a short term visit visa before being able to apply for a long term one, if you have not previously applied for a UK visa, you may wish to apply for a short term visit visa first (that is, a standard visit visa of 6 months validity.).

谢谢Ucer! 官方网站上我也没看到关于出入境次数限制一说。曾有人提醒说发签证是一回事，让不让过境另外回事，过于频繁地出入境会被怀疑目的，会被问到。不过这么一说还是放心了些。
听说申请英国的签证一般等两三周左右给寄过来，不知道现在有没有改。

另外想请教一下关于公司开证明的，就写在这六个月里我会被派到英国客户那里干软件开发的工作之类的。还需不需要客户开相关证明或者其它什么证明 (否则如何知道公司在英国有项目)?

这个对我来说问题不大，一般来说周二去，周四或周五回来，这样每次待在英国的时间并不长。待那里时间总的加起来也不会超过给的签证时间的一半。不过谢谢提醒了!

没有次数限制， 你不用担心。
签证很简单， 你需要提供你去的目的，以你情况大概英国客户邀请，其他就是你的资金，没别的麻烦的。

也就是说英国客户邀请信(写邀请某公司的某人来做六个月的项目之类的)，Kontoauszug 和 工资单。
我在网上看到了以下这个:
As a guide, you should include:
•        bank statements, payslips, or some other evidence to show that you can pay for the trip and that you have enough money to support yourself and any dependants without working or getting any help from public funds, and
•        evidence that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit (for example, a letter from your employer).
是否还得写封证明信写类似于某人will leave the UK at the end of her visit并由雇主盖章。

这些都是最普通的官方要求，哪个国家签证基本都需要
第一个就是财政证明， 工资单，银行存款都可以。
第二个你的邀请信里面提一下就好，都不是什么大事。你是德国合同，有德国固定地址，这些基本上就够了。
