New analysis from the @royalsociety shows just how high UK visa costs for researchers are compared to upfront costs for similar visa routes in 13 other countries.
Here, we take a look at how the UK compares to countries in the G7 included in the analysis 🔍⤵️ 1/5
ALT Bar chart shows the upfront costs for similar visa routes for researchers in the UK, US, France, Italy, Germany and Japan. UK costs are multiple times higher than other countries and the biggest factor for this is the Immigration Health Surcharge (IHS).
