Frontier Worker Permit і постійна адреса
Greetings 👋
My name is Alexander, I am your personal manager. Let me help you!

Recently, our team was asked a question: “Do I need a permanent UK address to keep my Frontier Worker Permit active?”
We wanna share the answer from our specialists:
12.08.2025 10:08:13 No, you do not need a permanent UK address to keep your Frontier Worker Permit active. The Frontier Worker Permit is designed for EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens who are employed or self-employed in the UK but reside primarily outside of the UK. To maintain the permit, you must continue to meet the eligibility requirements, which include working in the UK at least once every 12 months. Your primary residence should still be outside of the UK. It's important to ensure that your travel and work patterns align with these requirements to keep your permit valid.
12.08.2025 12:15:16 Hello, no, a permanent address in the United Kingdom is not required to keep your Frontier Worker Permit valid. To maintain the permit, you must regularly enter the UK for work. If you stop working in the United Kingdom for more than 12 months without a valid reason, you will lose your status.
14.08.2025 12:24:30 No, you do not need a permanent UK address to keep your Frontier Worker Permit active. This permit is specifically designed for EU, EEA, and Swiss citizens who live primarily outside the UK but regularly work in the UK. Your residence should remain outside the UK for most of the year — usually you must spend less than 180 days a year living in the UK to maintain your frontier worker status. However: You must keep a valid work arrangement in the UK and continue meeting the permit’s eligibility rules (e.g., working or self-employed in the UK before 31 December 2020 and maintaining that pattern). You should keep your contact details updated with the UK Home Office, which can include a correspondence address that doesn’t have to be your residence — for example, a friend’s or work address in the UK for official mail. If you move permanently to the UK, you’ll no longer meet the frontier worker criteria and would need a different visa route.
