UK Tier 4 - Bermudians in the UK

In view of the U.K. Government announcement on Tier 4 and specifically relating to Bermudians in the U.K. involving their travel, the London Office is advising as below.

In line with UK Government guidance, individuals resident in a Tier 4 area must not leave their primary place of residence unless such travel is essential (e.g. for work or education purposes). If an individual requires to travel they must stay within their local area and look to reduce the number of journeys they make overall; this includes a ban on international travel. 

If an individual is ordinarily resident in Bermuda and travelled to the UK for purposes of vacation, education, or medical reasons the current rules allow for their travel to return to Bermuda.

The next review of the Tier system is due to take place on 30 December, from which these rules may change. It is therefore advisable to keep updated on any such developments during this time.
