UK Working Holiday Maker Scheme

The working holidaymaker scheme allows a commonwealth person aged between 17 and 30 to come to the United Kingdom for up to two years with the intention of taking paid work here as a part of a working holiday.

There are no restrictions on the type of work or the amount of time spent working in Britain during the 2 years but a holiday needs to be taken.

It is possible after 12 months to switch to full time work permit employment.
