Non-immigrant country

Britain is a non-immigrant country in the traditional sense, but due to a series of problems that have plagued Britain in recent years, such as the aging population and the shortage of high-tech talents, Britain urgently needs a large number of high-tech talents. On June 28th, 2002, 65438+20021October 28th, Britain announced that it had started to try out the High-tech Migration Scheme (HSMP), which allowed individuals with special skills and work experience to work or find their own jobs in Britain. The purpose of this plan is to provide individual migration routes to meet the shortage of talents in this field in Britain and make Britain competitive in the global economy. This project was originally planned to be tried out for 12 months, but it was postponed because of its success. It was officially implemented on June 28th, 2003. This is the first time that Britain has opened its immigration policy to the outside world in 30 years. Since the implementation of this policy for more than two years, a large number of skilled immigrants from all over the world have legally entered the UK to work and live, including many applicants from China.
