If you are a close family member of an EU, EEA, or Swiss citizen living in the UK, the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) Family Permit offers a route to join them. Our immigration experts simplify the application process, ensuring you meet all entry requirements and can travel to the UK with confidence.
The EU Settlement Scheme Family Permit is an entry clearance visa that allows eligible family members from outside the UK to join their EU, EEA, or Swiss sponsor in the UK. It is valid for six months and permits you to work and study immediately upon arrival.
This permit acts as a bridge for family reunification. Once you have entered the UK using this permit, you must apply to the EU Settlement Scheme (EUSS) to obtain pre-settled or settled status, which secures your long-term right to live in the country. It is designed specifically for non-EEA family members or EEA citizens who do not currently hold a valid biometric residence card.
