About this grant
The Sovereign AI Fund is offering reimbursement of eligible visa-related fees for international hires into qualifying UK-based R&D roles for supported AI companies.

Eligible costs include visa-related fees on eligible routes, including the Certificate of Sponsorship fees, visa application fee, the Immigration Health Surcharge, the Immigration Skills Charge, and priority or super-priority processing fees. Reimbursements are paid in arrears after the visa is granted and the hire has started in the approved UK-based R&D role.
