I've split this from the thread it was in as it wasn't really appropriate there, but Kareena, is there a reason you want to engage an agency? If you're still in India, I don't think we have any members there regularly posting but I can't imagine there's any more reason to have a pimp there than there is anywhere else?

Thanks for your replies.actually I'm a crossdresser(Male to female).I have been doing this discreetly over 27 years.despite looking like a sexy diva I'm simply controlling my feminine side for the sake of my society and family.I cannot live a shemale's life here.I was looking for an agency to sponsor me some work.I'm willing to pay for my travel and relocation expense but I would essentially require job permit to leave my country first.as I have no acquaintance individuals to offer me a job outside India,I thought its better to move through some agency.I know that I have much(more than most)to offer as a shemale but under current scenario,I cannot advertise myself.god knows if I would be able to live like what I am

Thanks for your hugs curvy.u guessed it right that I have never worked for any agency.though I'm relevantly inexperienced with this term escorting,but I have worked my bit in the study of shemale escorts living in my society(country). Firstly,living as shemale in our society is socially highly unacceptable. It might be the same in various other parts of the world to different extent but at least u r not putting your family into any embarrassment if its discrete (obviously away from home).India to me is a full as my society.Secondly, individuals like me do work in local agencies and as independent escorts,but nearly all of them r socially discarded except for their same alikes,clients and agencies. And even the money they earn after all this is just sufficient to buy them bread and butter only.for my dream life,I'm willing to live the same,but only outside my society and for some greater financial returns.and as for the visa,I think(just) an official recruitment letter would be a strong base to obtain it more comfortably.

As above, you wouldn't get a work permit for escorting in the UK. It might be legal to escort here, but employing escorts to pimp out is illegal and so it would be impossible for them to sponsor you as an employer.

But an agency isn't an employer, they won't give you a contract of employment as that is a written contract that they are pimping you which is illegal here. My agency doesn't know my real name. The only difference was with the parlour I worked in as I provided my ID, national insurance number and other details (stupidly may I add, never again)

This might sound a bit harsh too, but even IF they could legally sponsor you (they can't) why would they? You are already a very specialist niche, which cuts down the agencies that would be interested to 1 or 2 in the whole country. These agencies will likely have as many escorts available as they want, they just wouldn't go to the trouble of importing them.

But most importantly, it would be completely impossible for an escorting agency to get you a work permit here, as what they are doing is illegal.

The thing is nobody in this industry is going to sponsor you for a visa, because even those who work in parlours and so on are technically self employed.  Also parlours are brothels which are illegal in the first place.

I am sorry that your dream is taking a hit and I do feel a bit bad but I also think it's best to tell you straight up - you are not going to be able to get a visa to come to the UK to work in the sex industry.
