The UK's Most Comprehensive Sponsor List
The sponsor list UK is a searchable database of every company licensed by the Home Office to sponsor foreign workers under the UK's points-based immigration system. Our UK sponsor list includes 125,823+ active sponsors from the official tier 2 sponsor list (now known as the Skilled Worker route), updated daily from the GOV.UK sponsor list.
Whether you're searching for the UK skilled worker visa sponsor list, looking for a list of companies that can sponsor visa in UK 2026, or need a quick tier 2 sponsor licence check — our free tools make it simple to find and verify UK visa sponsors.
Who Can Sponsor UK Work Visas?
Only organisations with an active sponsor licence from UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) can sponsor workers on the Skilled Worker visa, Health and Care Worker visa, or other sponsored routes. The UKVI sponsorship list currently contains 125,823 licensed sponsors, and our daily sponsor licence checker lets you verify any company's status instantly.
Companies must apply for a licence, meet strict compliance requirements, and maintain their A-rating to continue sponsoring workers. You can perform a sponsor licence check at any time. Sponsors can have their licence suspended or revoked if they fail to meet Home Office standards — which is why checking a company's current status before accepting a job offer is essential.
How to Use the UK Sponsor List
Our sponsor search tool lets you filter the entire sponsor list by company name, city, industry, and visa route. You can browse all sponsors, find companies in specific UK cities, or explore opportunities in high-demand industries like technology, healthcare, and finance.
For job seekers, we recommend starting with our guide to getting sponsored and understanding the salary requirements for your occupation code. You can also download the tier 2 sponsor list PDF for offline reference, or use our sponsor licence checker to instantly verify any UK company's ability to sponsor your visa.
Popular Sectors for Visa Sponsorship

Our health and care visa sponsors list covers NHS trusts, nursing homes, and care providers. There are thousands of care companies with sponsorship licence across England, Scotland, and Wales, making care work one of the fastest routes to UK work authorisation.
Tier 2 Sponsor List — What You Need to Know

Although it was renamed in December 2020 when the Skilled Worker visa replaced the Tier 2 visa, many people still search for the tier 2 sponsor list. All companies previously listed under Tier 2 are now on the current sponsor list UK. You can verify any company's status with our tier 2 sponsor licence check tool.
