请教各位，关于五年工作签证，有没有规定申请人在这五年内都必须在英国，有没有规定关于在这五年中不能离境多少天？
多谢了。
如果打算申请永居就有
五年离境不能超过180天
不打算申请永居那就随你高兴啦

Indefinite leave to remain - calculating continuous period in UK
Calculation of the continuous qualifying period for settlement
Tier 1 (Investors or Entrepreneurs)
When assessing if an applicant has met the criteria for continuous residence in the UK, absences for up to 180 days in any 12 calendar months may be disregarded.
Other qualifying categories
When assessing if an applicant has met the criteria for five years continuous period in the UK, short absences abroad may be disregarded, provided the applicant has clearly continued to be based in the UK. For example:
holidays (consistent with annual paid leave), or
short business trips (consistent with maintaining employment or self-employment in the UK).
If total of all absences exceed 180 days over the five year period, continuity will be broken.
Exceptional discretion in cases where a continuous period has been broken
You may exceptionally aggregate and not insist on continuity for time spent on holidays and/or short business trips, in cases where the applicant has exceeded the 180 day permitted absence limit, when:
Excessive absences were for compelling grounds either of a compassionate nature, or for reasons related to the applicant’s employment or business in the UK. If the excessive absence is work related, evidence will need to be submitted to show that it would have serious implications for the employer or business if the travel had not been undertaken. Where the continuous period has been broken, periods may be aggregated or shortfalls disregarded only with the approval of a senior executive officer (SEO) or grade 7.
There have been no absences abroad, but authorised employment or business in the UK has been interrupted for no longer than three months or amounting to less than six months in total for the whole five year period. Decisions on these cases must be taken at higher executive officer (HEO) level or above.
If total of all absences exceed 180 days over the five year period, continuity will be broken。
不是永居就没关系
多谢大家的信息，我有点疑惑的是，按照3楼版主的信息，这180天是不是不算在年假里的？还是年假的时候离境也不行。
谢谢了。
超过就不行！
我的理解是短出差和年假不算进去的，

为什么大家理解的是全部都算？最后一句话也是针对上述例外之后而说的啊~~
