In a major policy shift aimed at tightening immigration controls, the United Kingdom has announced substantial increases in foreign work visa fees and salary requirements, effective from 2025.

The new measures, introduced by the UK Home Office, are designed to reduce dependency on migrant labor and ensure that foreign workers make a greater financial contribution to public services such as the National Health Service (NHS).
