For example:
Individuals may be the subject of a re-entry ban where they have previously breached the UK’s immigration laws by:
(a) overstaying;
(b) breaching a condition attached to their leave;
(c) being an Illegal Entrant;
(d) using deception in an application for entry clearance, leave to enter or remain (whether successful or not).
Bans may be of one year, two years, five years or ten years duration.
A migrant who leaves voluntarily at his or her own expense will receive a one-year ban.
One who departs voluntarily but receives financial assistance from the UK Government to do so will receive a two year or a five year ban depending on how long they delay their departure.
Enforced removal or deportation results in a ten year ban.
The bans apply to the visitor and points-based (worker/ student etc) routes
