Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.

Hi

Came back a months ago from UAE trip and gone through just the usual stuff after landing.

I travel almost after every three to four month due to business commitments and had no special experience to share. Just keep your business details with you like visiting card etc (if you want).

99% of the times, you should pass though as usual without any questioning. Questioning residents at the border is usually rare however there were reports of it happening randomly or because of a red flag in the border system
Advice is given based on my personal research and experience only. Do NOT contact me via private message for immigration advice

I have travelled many dozens of times during my tier 1 visa. 3 times in the last month. Sometimes they ask me what I do and I answer "my company makes..."

For clarifications there are no limits on travel for T1 Entrepreneur. Travel is not asked about in your extension. For ILR they do check travel and it cannot be over 180 days per 12 months

I travelled to my home country after my tier 1 ent extension. When I came back to the UK in August, I was asked about what kind of business I was doing, if I had any employees, turnover of the company, and they also asked me who my clients were.
