Frequently asked questions

When should I renew my licence?

Start before the expiry date. Late renewal can lead to fines and restrictions.

Usually yes, subject to approvals and fees. Not every activity can be combined.

Can I renew if my lease expired?

Most authorities need valid tenancy. We help you renew it first.

What happens to visas when a company closes?
