UK Skilled Worker Visa Eligible Occupation Codes & Salary Thresholds - 2025 Guide

Q: How do I use this guide to find my occupation code?

Use the search function to find your occupation by job title, related positions, or SOC code. Check the eligibility status to confirm if your role qualifies for visa sponsorship, and review the going rates to ensure your salary meets UKVI requirements.

Q: What is the difference between standard rate and lower rate?

The standard rate (going rate) is the minimum salary for most Skilled Worker visa applications. The lower rate applies to specific circumstances: if you got your first certificate of sponsorship before 4 April 2024 with continuous visa holdings, are under 26, in postdoctoral positions, or professional training.

Visa Eligibility Guide & Decision Tree

Complete guide to understanding UK Skilled Worker visa eligibility, SOC codes, and salary requirements

About SOC Codes and Going Rates

Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) 2020 codes are used by UK Visas and Immigration to determine visa eligibility. The "going rate" is the salary benchmark for your specific job, which you must generally meet alongside a £41,700 general threshold. It's based on a 37.5-hour working week and must be pro-rated for other working patterns. Lower rates may apply if you are applying for a Health and Care Worker Visa in certain occupations or got your certificate of sponsorship for your first Skilled Worker visa before 4 April 2024 and have continually held one or more Skilled Worker visas since then.

Eligibility Levels

Higher
Higher Skilled (RQF Level 6+): Professional occupations typically requiring a degree-level qualification. These occupations are eligible for standard Skilled Worker visa sponsorship.
Medium
Medium Skilled (RQF Level 3+): Occupations requiring A-level equivalent qualifications or significant work experience. Can only apply if the job is on either the immigration salary list or temporary shortage list.
Medium (Ext)
Medium Skilled - Extending: Occupations eligible only for visa extensions in the same role, not for new applications.
Medium (Cond)
Medium Skilled - Conditions: Occupations with specific conditions that must be met for eligibility.
Medium (Spec)
Medium Skilled - Specific Roles: Only certain positions within these occupation codes are eligible for sponsorship.
Ineligible
Ineligible: Occupations that do not meet the skill level requirements for Skilled Worker visa sponsorship.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use this guide to find my occupation code?

Use the search function above to find your occupation by job title, related positions, or SOC code. Check the eligibility status to confirm if your role qualifies for visa sponsorship, and review the going rates to ensure your salary meets UKVI requirements. This information is based on official UK government guidance and is updated regularly.

How can I find potential visa sponsorship jobs?

Once you've identified your eligible occupation code, you can search for jobs with companies that hold a valid Sponsor Licence. Visit our jobs board to find potential visa sponsorship opportunities from licensed sponsors across all eligible occupation codes. Always confirm sponsorship availability directly with employers. You can also browse our companies list (sourced from government data) to explore licensed sponsors by industry and location.

What is the difference between standard rate and lower rate?

The standard rate (going rate) is the the salary benchmark for your specific job. The lower rate applies to specific circumstances: if you got your first certificate of sponsorship before 4 April 2024 with continuous visa holdings, are applying for Health and Care Worker Visa in certain occupations.

How are salaries calculated for different working hours?

The annual salaries shown are based on a 37.5-hour working week. They must be pro-rated for other working patterns based on the weekly working hours stated by your employer. For example, if you work 30 hours per week, your minimum salary would be proportionally adjusted.

Can I apply for a visa in a different occupation code?

Yes, you can apply for any eligible occupation code if you meet the qualification and experience requirements. Your sponsor must confirm that your role genuinely matches the SOC code and that you meet the skill level requirements.

What if my job title isn't listed in the related job titles?

The related job titles are examples, not an exhaustive list. What matters is whether your actual duties and responsibilities match the occupation description. You can use the CASCOT occupation coding tool to help identify the most appropriate SOC code for your role.

Do healthcare and education jobs have different rules?

Yes, there are different salary rules for some healthcare and education jobs. The 'going rates' for these positions are based on national pay scales set by relevant independent bodies (like the NHS). These scales vary by area of the UK and professional grade. Look for healthcare (⚕️) or education (🎓) links in the salary columns of the occupation codes table - these will direct you to the official government pay scales for your specific occupation.

How often are SOC codes and going rates updated?

SOC codes are reviewed periodically (the current version is SOC 2020). Going rates are typically updated annually in April, based on the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings (ASHE) data. The latest update was on 22 July 2025. Always check the official government guidance for the most current requirements.

What are the benefits of shortage occupations?

Shortage occupations (marked with an orange "Shortage" badge) receive several benefits: reduced salary thresholds (70% of going rate), lower visa application fees, potential for faster processing, and exemption from Resident Labour Market Test requirements. These designations help address critical skill shortages in the UK economy.

Why are some medium skilled occupations dimmed in the table?

According to UK government requirements, medium skilled occupations can only apply for a Skilled Worker visa if the job is listed on either the immigration salary list or the temporary shortage list. Medium skilled occupations that don't appear on either list are not eligible for visa sponsorship and are shown dimmed in the table.

What does "not eligible for standard rate applications" mean?

Some occupation codes show "Not eligible for standard rate applications" - this means these roles are only eligible for lower rate applications under specific circumstances (such as Health and Care Worker visas or certain transitional arrangements). Check the specific eligibility requirements for your situation.
