Bermuda recognised and registered as qualified jurisdiction under the Solicitors Regulation Authority ("SRA"):

 

Bar Council is pleased to announce that the Bermuda Bar Association is a recognized jurisdiction under the SRA. This provides an avenue for Attorneys/Lawyers admitted to practice law in Bermuda to be qualified to practice as solicitors in the UK.

 

The SRA allows Lawyers qualified in foreign jurisdictions (other than the UK) to apply and ultimately be admitted as solicitors in the UK via a transfer under the Qualified Lawyers Transfer Scheme ("QLTS"), which includes certain degrees of testing; such degree is dependent upon the individual's legal qualification and the jurisdiction where the said Lawyer is qualified.
