It’s essential that your qualification as a Professional is UK compatible. Therefore you must possess a General Optical Council (GOC) registration number. To register with the GOC please contact the Registration Department on +44 207 5803898 or click here to access the GOC official website. Unfortunately, because these roles are not classed as a skills shortage in the UK by the Home Office, we’re unable to apply for a work permit on your behalf so securing a work permit would be your responsibility.
