Work Permit Application Form

UK Musician Work Permits

We can provide most international musicians planning on touring in the UK with work permits (Tier 5 Sporting and Creative Certificates of Sponsorship). We are a UK incorporated promoter with 10 years international booking experience and so have a Grade A sponsor rating with the UK Border and Immigration Agency. We have a 100% success rate for bringing international acts to the UK.

Please read our Work Permit Directions to Artists before filling in the application form below. Any information accidentally omitted will delay the processing of your application.

The flat fee is £100 per certificate (i.e. per musician) and £100 per contract (per act). After providing us with the necessary information we will review your application within one week of submission (this can be expedited if required at no extra cost) and if approved we will provide you with a secure payment link (all major credit cards), your certifications and contract (latter if required).

If you need to expedite the work permits then please text 'work permits' on our work permit hotline +44 (0)7908 495549 and we will call you back as soon as possible. Alternatively, if you have any questions please email us at workpermits@cmeas.com.
