Points-based immigration system
Foreign Job Seekers Will Have to Apply for Visa to Work in UK
As of today, all foreigners, including those from the EU Member States who want to work in the UK from 1 January, will have to apply online for a visa. The free movement of people to and from the EU ends after Brexit on 31 December.
Ministers say the new immigration measures will be "simple and flexible" with a new points-based system.
