How to Apply for a Sponsor Licence: A Step-by-Step Guide for UK Employers

Applying for a sponsor licence is crucial if a UK employer wishes to recruit skilled workers from overseas. Issued by UK Visas and Immigration, this license permits businesses to sponsor foreign talent to foster innovation and expansion - but its application process can be complex, with strict compliance required against Home Office regulations - here's our step-by-step guide that'll help your application go smoothly!


Before applying, first confirm eligibility by verifying whether your business operates legally in the UK with robust HR systems in place. Once eligibility has been verified, prepare the necessary documents such as proof of registration, bank statements and premises documents before designating key personnel such as an Authorising Officer and Key Contact to manage and oversee your licence agreement.


Complete and pay the application form online accurately, paying any applicable fee (PS536 for small businesses and PS1,476 for larger ones), attach clearly-labeled supporting documents and be prepared for a potential Home Office visit.
