Clarity for the Skilled Worker path.
SponsorCheck bridges the information gap between job seekers and UK employers. We transform raw government registers into an actionable, professional intelligence tool.
Our core mission is to provide transparency to international graduates, skilled migrants, and overseas visa applicants. Navigating the complex UK points-based immigration system requires knowing exactly which companies have the legal authorization to sponsor work visas. SponsorCheck solves this by pulling directly and programmatically from the official UK Home Office sponsor register. By relying on government open data, we ensure every search result reflects the authoritative source of truth.
Data synchronization occurs daily. This high-frequency update cycle matters tremendously, as companies frequently have their sponsorship licences suspended, revoked, or freshly approved. Stale information can result in you investing weeks into an interview process, only to find the company legally cannot hire you.
We also immediately highlight the difference between an A-rated and B-rated sponsor. An A-rated sponsor is in full compliance with UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) duties and has the unrestrained ability to issue Certificates of Sponsorship. In contrast, a B-rated sponsor is under a temporary action plan due to compliance failures, restricting their ability to hire new overseas talent. By exposing this rating clearly, we empower you to align your career solely with secure, verified employers.
