Can publishing companies publish script made by foreigner?

Hi! I've made several novels, but I haven't submit it to any publishing companies. I want to submit it, but the problem is, I made it in English and the native language in my country is not English (I'm Asian). Moreover, currently, I'm attending a university in London. So, can I just submit it to publishing companies here in London? And if they accept it, can they publish it? Because, I only have a student visa, not work visa. Any ideas?Can publishing companies publish script made by foreigner?
You don't need a work permit or visa to be allowed to publish a book in the UK. You're not employed by the publisher.

What you probably need is a literary agent. Most of the major publishers in the UK don't accept manuscripts directly from authors. An agent sifts through the thousands of mostly unpublishable manuscripts that writers submit to him every year, and sends the ten or twenty he thinks might be bestsellers to whichever publisher(s) he thinks might want them.

Buy or borrow the current edition of Writer's and Artist's Yearbook. It will tell you everything you need to know about getting published.

Having said that, if this question represents your standard of English, you're not going to get published. If an agent or publisher can tell that you're not a native speaker of the language you're writing, they won't offer to publish your book.Can publishing companies publish script made by foreigner?
submit it to the london publishing company - ask them if they DO publish novels from a student visa person. if not try publish them in your own country - english is a universal language so it can be published..if THAT isn't possible, then try obtain a work visa or PR in a country (eg. england, usa etc) and then they will have no reason to not publish your workCan publishing companies publish script made by foreigner?
It would be fine to send it off here in England.
