Our refTier4Visa/Croatia

Dear Student

If you are an international student studying in the UK and hold a Tier 4 student visa or are a Croatian national in receipt of a Yellow Registration Certificate and you intend to undertake any paid work you must adhere to the Immigration Rules relating to student employment. You cannot be self-employed, provide services as a professional sportsperson or entertainer or fill a full time permanent vacancy in the UK. If you are a national of Croatia you can live and study in the UK without restriction, but must obtain an EU Yellow Registration Certificate before taking up any employment. The maximum number of hours you can work each week depends on the type of course upon which you are registered.

Undergraduate course

You can work for a maximum of 20 hours per week during term time with no restriction on hours during the University vacations. The 20 working hours per week applies to all employment (any employer) you are paid for. During vacation you have no restriction on the hours worked but should you work more than 20 hours per week during term time you will only be paid for a maximum of 20 hours.

Postgraduate course - Master’s

You can only work for a maximum of 20 hours per week for the duration of your course.

Postgraduate course - PhD

You can work for a maximum of 20 hours per week for the duration of your course.

Completion of Studies (Undergraduate and Postgraduate)

If you have confirmation you have passed your degree (either by presenting the degree certificate or official confirmation from the University) you can work full time for the remaining period of time left on your visa providing this period is 6 months or less. Croatian students – You will not have an end date on your Yellow Registration Certificate, but you must inform HR when you have completed your studies because you will no longer be eligible to work under student rules when you are no longer registered as a student at a UK HEI.

Before undertaking any work submit this form together with a copy of your student visa/yellow registration certificate to the Departmental Administrator/Secretary of the department who wish to employ you. If you have completed your studies and wish to work full time refer to the paragraph above. After the work has been completed, the department for whom you worked will request Payroll to pay you.

By signing the attached declaration you are agreeing to comply with these Rules at all times. You must advise Human Resources of any change in circumstances in your employment or student status. The University is legally obligated to comply with the Immigration Rules and action will be taken against any student found to be in breach of the Rules.

Yours sincerely
