1. Eligibility to work
Am I eligible to work in the UK? 
You are eligible to work in the UK, and therefore don’t need to obtain a work permit, if any of the following apply:
You are a British citizen.
You are an European Economic Area (EEA) citizen.
You are a Swiss national.
If you’re from the EU/EEA or Switzerland
You will also need to apply for a UK residence card or be able to prove your right to work in the UK as an EU citizen (for example, a valid UK National Insurance number).
For more information related to EU, EEA and Commonwealth citizens and your rights to working in the UK, please visit: Working Rights in UK
What if I don’t have the right to work in the UK?
Visas
If you’re not a British citizen, EEA citizen or Swiss national, you may need to apply for a visa in order to be able to work in the UK.

Work Permit
If you’ve already found a job in the UK and been accepted to work, or you have a visa but it does not allow you to work, you may need to obtain a work permit.
