UK Updates List of Employers Licensed to Sponsor Foreign Workers

The UK Government has updated its register of employers licensed to sponsor foreign workers under its Worker and Temporary Worker immigration routes. The latest version was published on September 4, 2026. Nigerian jobseekers and other applicants can use the register to identify organisations that are authorised to sponsor eligible workers. This can help them focus their applications on employers that may be open to visa-sponsored recruitment. However, a company’s presence on the register does not guarantee sponsorship for every vacancy. Applicants should still check each job’s duties, salary, qualifications, location and immigration eligibility requirements before applying. The register is updated periodically, so people seeking UK-sponsored roles should rely on the latest version and confirm sponsorship details directly in each vacancy.
