Please for those who doesn’t have contacts with celebrities who could wear a piece and tag the brand, what advice would you give such ones please?
This is really a good guide to this talent Visa. Please how can I reach out to Mr Philip. I am from the fashion line sir.
Jow do I connect with Mr phillip to aid us in the fashion route.
Thank you
Thanks for this, God bless you for all you do for, please i want to know if it is mandatory that your fashion business is Registered in Nigerian.
Gems .. an artist (music) lived for 7 years in the uk prior but moved back. I’m contemplating this route
You should go for it

Please what is the job description like over there?
I was told by someone who came through that route that you can set up your brand in the UK or chose to work for a brand. Your knowledge and skills will determine the exact job description.
Thank God I finally contact him
Thank you for this. Please how can we get to sir Philip for consultancy and guide

Thank you for this video, I am a fashion designer based here in Nigeria. Please how can I go through dz route, I need some guidance.
I've read through on the website
You could try reaching out to him on ig - @philipojire
Is the 3 recommendation letter part of the 10 pieces of evidence or the 3 letters are separate and the 10 pieces of evidence separate too?
No, the letters are not part of the evidences
If I attended a fashion exhibition. Apart from the pictures of my work at the exhibition. What are other things I can show as evidence from the exhibition?
Thanks for your prompt reply
Social media posts, slot bookings or anything else that can link your brand to that event.
Is it mandatory that we must gives examples in all the 4/5 categories ?
As in media publicity
Luxuries sales
Industry recognition
And award
Please ma Me Chulam, the bellanaija styles Mr Phillip was talking about is it just for them to upload a picture of ones designs and write the designer name like we usually see on Instagram and all or is there a specific content that it should carry?
I think the first one. Just a link to the designer
I’ve come across the lady that guided him in the process.
Please, I really want to apply for it. How do I connect with him please.
You can try reaching out to him on IG -@philipojire
Hello ma, please I need to talk to you, I want to go through the literature and music route but I cannot find any video teaching how to go about it, or even how to address the recommendation letter for arts and culture , I have no idea if I am paying the 608 pounds times three while applying because of my husband and son, please help me , let me make a mistake.
Hello Davida, I’m not familiar with the literature and music route. But the visa application fee is paid per applicant. Yes, you’ll need to pay the application fee three times if all three of you are applying together.
please how can I contact Mr Ejire on guidance and consultation for the global talent visa like he mentioned how someone put him through it all for sample documents
Hello ma'am, please, most pages I've seen online says one will need an endorsement letter. What kind of endorsement is it?
Nice video. And thanks for sharing 💕please for the uk evidence, asides a recommendation letter from the person, do you also need evidence of media coverage and celebrity recognition from the Uk? Or just a recommendation letter and maybe sales from uk is enough from uk?
Thank you. I’m glad you found it useful. For exceptional promise, evidences of industry recognition and media recognition do not necessarily need to be from the UK.
Yes, one recommendation letter has to be from the UK and evidences of international sales could be from UK or any other ‘abroad’ country.
@@didichulam thanks so much. I appreciate your response. Please one more question 😃🙏🏽for the international sales, which is preferable? Physical receipt booklets or soft copy receipts/invoices?
Actually just discovered your channel and you’re doing well. Welldone…you just got a new subscriber ☺️💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽
@@naijagurlandherpops Aww thank you so much for subscribing.
I believe anyone is fine. According to the documentation, It needs to show the name of the buyer and the date the order was made. I will also add that if there is any proof that the package was sent abroad (e.g delivery address) you should include it.
@@didichulam oh great tips. Thank you so much 🙏🏽💕
@@naijagurlandherpops You’re welcome ❤️
Hi! Pls I need help with the letter of recommendation. How should it look like? Can you help with a sample of it.
Hi Tracy, the recommendation letter should look like any other kind of recommendation letter but if you will need further assistance with that, you can try reaching out to Mr Phillip on IG @philipojire Say you’re from my channel and he’ll attend to you.
This is the second time I’m watching your story MR Philip,the first one is with Tochi Esther,but i think this video gives me more courage about this global talent,because I’m very sure i am eligible💯💯.I will get in touch with you on Instagram,thanks
Good work madam didi and your husband, please and interested in the global talent visa. And I will like to meet Mr Phillip ojiri, I will be so happy if I can’t get your support
Please is there a minimum number of years one must have worked in the fashion field to qualify
Hi, please i have a question. If you get the visa and move to the uk, is there any work available or when you move, you’ll be allowed to work anywhere at all?
You can work anywhere but down the line when it’s time for you to apply for ILR, home office will want to see that you have made money in the fashion industry. It doesn’t necessarily need to be your own brand it could be that you have worked in some other fashion brand.
What about Fine Artists/Graphic designers?
For the aspect of celebrities using your brands. Apart from the picture evidence and feedback or being tagged by the celebrate on their social media platforms. Is the picture only or a screenshot of the celebrities comment on your clothes brand that one will show as evidence or it must be backed up by a recommendation letter from that celebrities?
A screenshot showing that your brand was tagged is okay as evidence.
Please
As mentioned in the video, 7 evidences were highlighted including the 3 compulsory recommendation letter. Does that make up the whole 10 evidences or is it 10 evidences plus the 3 compulsory recommendation letter making it 13 documents?
Asides that too please, must a tag from a celebrity be supported with recommendation latter as evidences?
@@ogunleyetosin2472 the recommendation letters are not a part of the evidences. You will need 10 evidences and the recommendation letters are not included in the 10.
2. No you don’t need recommendation letter with every tag. The tag is just to show evidence of recognition. Recommendation letter is not a part of the evidences.
I attached a link to the gov.uk website for all the information about the evidences and the recommendation letters.
How do I reach out to Philip ojere. I am a fashion designer already in the uk wanting to apply for the global talent visa
Thank you so much for this info...my question is ...can one do other jobs in the UK aside the fashion designing?
You’ll need to do a job (or business) that relates to fashion if you come through that route. They will want to see it especially when it’s time to process for ILR (permanent residency)
Hello Didi,
Can you guide an academia who is a professor and already in the UK on a dependant visa to do a switch to a Global Talent visa?
Good day, my name is Samson Chukwu. I am a fashion designer and I have interest to travel to UK but I don't know who to guide me to get all these requirements. Please I need your help thanks.
The process is not easy but... Am on it
Are you applying as Tech or through the Fashion Route
thanks God found this video . Thanks for making this video Plz guide me how to get endorsement done for art and culture . I am unable to find the link
You’re welcome. I’m glad you found it useful. Here’s the link
www.gov.uk/global-talent-arts-culture
@@didichulam aw thanks a lot for your valuable reply and support ... Stay blessed , lots of love 😘 is this the link for endorsements
@@didichulam I checked the eligibility criteria. They are demanding an international evidence which I don't have sadly 😢 I've not worked internationally so far
@@nibainspiration8074 ..bro ..you can start doing networking along with them internationally on social media
Thank you so much for this video, please I would like to know if I can make use of my manual sales invoice or e-sales invoice that has the address of my clients most especially abroad but don't have the shipping details, can it still be valid without DHL, fedex or any shipment details and not from the website but I have WhatsApp conversations that shows they ordered and I delivered abroad
Are there any emails or messages you have from the shipping companies? I believe it’s okay to add anything you have as long as it proves that there was a sale.
I'm not sure I have mails, it's been about 2-3 years then most times my customers have people coming to Nigeria and would want them to help pick along. How do I justify that please
@@didichulam thank you so much for you response
@@ajayigracej.9346 You can provide what you have - receipts and invoices
@@didichulam okay
Thank you so much
How can get recommendations letter from uk?
Can I show more than one piece of evidence from a fashion exhibition I attended? If yes.
What is likely evidence I can look out for
Yes. More like a fashion exhibition you/your brand took part in. It could be pictures, social media posts or anything that can convince that you took part in the exhibition.
hi didi, nice work youre doing pushing out this content . im on course too for this route , i want to know , how much is the application fee via the fashion route . searched online , no concrete response . thanks
Application for the visa is £608 which will be split - £456 when applying for endorsement and £152 when applying for visa itself.
For more information on price, there’s a link to the gov.uk website in the video description - under ‘overview’
Thank you so much .
Hi mrs Didi , so i saw that the health surcharge as part of the application , and to be paid yearly . Can this be paid every year after you get the endorsement and visa , or is this payment for the first time ?
@@maxchideraofficial it’s paid upfront per the number of years on the visa. So if your visa is for 3 years, the health surcharge will be multiplied by 3.
However, I think there is an option of paying for one or two years first and pay for the other years subsequently. We didn’t do ours that way only because we didn’t want any confusion to arise in future but I believe there is that option.
I hope this is helpful?
@@didichulam yes thank you so much
Good morning .. Please how can I contact mr Philip ojire? Can't get his link
You can try reaching out to him on Instagram @philipojire. Be sure to let him know you’re from my channel and he’ll attend to you
Thank you sir
Please for small business with little funds, after getting to the UK via the global talent visa, is it possible to get a job, or one will have to start up his own business?
You can get a job
Please how can I get through to you, I'm a female and kiddies designer and I have some people abroad that get my brand and some family members but my brand has not been involved in any fashion show
Hello Grace, like the speaer suggested, you could organise a fashion show. Does not necessarily need to be large or anything too elaborate
@@didichulam thank you so much for your response. Please how do I get in touch with him will need his guidance in some aspect and he mentioned his willingness to help whoever is interested

@@jollofbraiding7448 I am not sure about that
Thank you, what qualifies a fashion designer for it?
Hi Damilola. I attached a link in the description box of this video. It contains more information on the criteria and application process.
Good morning ma, please how can I get through to Mr. Philip? Secondly for the industry recognition can I style a model in place of an actor as my evidence?
Hello Better Stitches, you can try reaching out to him on ig @philipojire. Let him know you are from my channel
Is it really compulsory to style a celebrity please for the industry recognition?
Is it possible to make use of someone who has lots of followers on Instagram please
@@ogunleyetosin2472 I believe he had access to celebrities hence he used celebrities. If you have access to an influencer or someone with high following on social media, I believe that should work
What evidence do I have to show if there is a review of my works on the radio?
Not exactly sure. You may need to get a letter, an excerpt or something from the radio station that proves that your work was aired.
greetings apart from fashion designers .what of caterings
Please can i still apply

Can I show the 10 pieces of evidence in International media recognition and international sales and distribution only since I don't have evidence for international shows or exhibitions and international awards and sponsorships? Thanks for your prompt response
Yes. You can show evidences in the two areas that you have. According to the documentation for the exceptional promise;
“You need to show evidence of at least 2 of the following:
international media recognition
support or sponsorship
sales from luxury clients
industry recognition”
Hope this is also applicable to the promise categories?
