The UK's New Immigration System
Since January 2021, the UK video games industry must operate under a points-based immigration system that requires international hires to secure 70 points based on job offers, skill levels, and English proficiency.
UK game studios must become licensed sponsors to hire international staff, including EU citizens who arrived after December 2020, which involves administrative oversight and potential immigration skills charges.
Applicants can earn additional points toward the 70-point threshold through higher salary levels, roles in shortage occupations, or relevant academic qualifications like STEM PhDs.
