How long before I can re-enter the UK after Leave to Remain refusal?
My fiancé has been refused an application for an Extension of Leave under the provisions of the Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) scheme.
He left the country 7 days after receiving the refusal notice so he didn't overstay.
He has Australian passport. Can he go back to UK as a visitor?
Are there any specific requirements/risks?
Thank you in advance.

Can he go back to UK as a visitor?
Yes he can, nothing in the law/guidance prevents him from.
Are there any specific requirements/risks?
Yes there are risks and heightened suspicion from immigration and UK Border Force however not much different from anyone who previously had a dust-up with UK immigration particularly since he did not overstay.
He can apply for a visitors visa (typically the preferred panacea recommended here with less stress), or he can choose the visa free route like I did and be ready and well prepared with ample documentation to overcome the inevitable grilling ahead.
