Learn about a Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence

Essential guidance for UK employers applying for a Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence.

Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence

The Skilled Worker visa is the primary UK immigration route for skilled workers. It allows employers access to the global talent market, provided certain strict eligibility requirements and compliance duties are met.

By law, UK employers are required to have a valid sponsor licence in order to hire international workers under the UK’s skilled worker route.

To obtain a skilled worker licence, you have to submit an application to the Home Office (UKVI). Sponsor licence holders must also meet certain compliance duties when hiring and employing migrant workers. The Home Office will use the application process to verify your organisation’s eligibility to meet these duties.
