Question to the Home Office:

To ask Her Majesty's Government whether the eight Tier 1 (Investor) visas granted to Russian nationals subject to UK sanctions in connection to the invasion of Ukrainian will be cancelled; if so, when; and if not, why not.

We do not routinely comment on the immigration status of individuals.

However, a person subject to a travel ban under sanctions made under the Sanctions and Anti-Money Laundering Act 2018 is an excluded persons for the purposes of Section 8B the Immigration Act 1971. Such a person’s leave to enter or remain would therefore be cancelled.
