Applying for Global Talent Endorsement through tech nation requires showing evidence that you meet the requirement to be endorsed as an EXCEPTIONAL TALENT or EXCEPTIONAL PROMISE. It is a lot of work for those who are eligible or potentially eligible. I say potentially eligible because you may not currently meet the requirement but you can work towards meeting the criteria if you already work in the digital technology sector.

What document checklist do you need to apply for Tech Nation endorsement for the global talent Visa? For you application to be assessed by tech nation, you need to provide the following documents:

1. Application/Personal Statement: The personal statement (maximum 1000 words in length) should cover the following questions, Why do you want to come to the UK? What is your planned occupation in the UK? Which region or city of the UK are you planning to live in How will the UK digital technology sector benefit from your work? The personal statement should explain the contribution that you will make to the UK digital technology sector. You can give examples of the technological advances you will bring, the creation or new markets, the planned growth of a digital technology company, the activities you will take part in outside of your immediate occupation.

2. CV with any career and publication history included.(not more than 3pages)

3. Three letters of recommendation from three different well-established organisations acknowledged as experts in the digital technology field. Each person who writes a letter for you must be a senior member of their organisation and Know your work. The three letter of recommendation must:
