Is the Register of Licensed Sponsors public?

Yes. The Home Office publishes it on gov.uk as a downloadable spreadsheet and refreshes it each month. We mirror that spreadsheet here so you can actually search it: filter by industry, visa route, location, or recent hiring activity.

How often is the Register of Licensed Sponsors updated?

Monthly. The Home Office uploads a fresh spreadsheet to gov.uk each month, and our sync picks up the new version automatically. New sponsors appear within a day or two of being licensed; revoked licences drop off.

How do I check if a company is on the Register of Licensed Sponsors?

Type the employer's name into the search box above. If they hold an active UK sponsor licence, you'll see a profile with the visa routes they're approved for, where they're based, and their recent sponsorship activity. No profile means they're either not licensed or have been removed from the register.

What's the difference between this register and the gov.uk version?

The data is the same. We sync straight from the Home Office's monthly spreadsheet. The difference is what you can do with it: search by keyword, filter by industry and visa route, and see live jobs, salary data, and past visa issuance volumes for each sponsor.
