I have a S22 Ultra that I dropped and ruined the screen making it unusable. I contacted the seller on OnBuy who refuse to help as it's out of warrenty. EE, iSmash, Samsung and an independent repair service have said it cannot be repaired in UK as its an international phone and they cannot get international parts. Does anyone know of a place that can access international phone screen replacements and can repair my phone?

You can probably buy a screen meant for a US/CAN phone (or a similar nearby country/region) and use it without issue. The way Samsung builds them now more or less means the chassis is the same, but the motherboard is programmed for the region it was sold in or locked to say, a EU carrier.
Older phones like the I9305 Note II and Sprint GSM+CDMA phones like the S5 and older were genuinely different and had a unique version of the part you had to match up but the newer phones are the same build — the difference is the carrier branding, SIM lock and supported bands on grey market phones. They go by U or U1 these days with U1 being the factory unlocked variant.
The only other change is sometimes the EU versions have Exynos chips and unlockable boatloaders while the US/CAN U series is Snapdragon based with a permanently locked bootloader because Samsung does it to make the carriers happy because for years, even up to the unlocked S7 they let us unlock it. The last one where it could be done for sure was the S9, it got murky when the S10 came out but I think the S10/S10e U1 has it.

Can you get these screens in the UK?
@johnb77802 The research I did seems to indicate the screens are the same for all of the regional SKUs, even the Exynos ones. I would compare photos to be sure, but there appears to be little to no difference.
Maybe you need one with mmwave and you can't use one screen, but that's potentially it.
Thank you Nick. I just now need to find someone who can find one and fix it for me.

SM-S908U (USA)
SM-S908U1 (USA unlocked)
SM-S908W (Canada)
SM-S908N (Korea)
SM-S9080 (China)
SM-S908E (Asia/Africa)

It's the S908E I believe. The independent guy said it's a Chinese phone. I'll confirm once I'm home.

Thanks oldturkey03. I got it wrong. I just checked the box and it's the S9080 not the S908E
