Worker sponsor register updated on 16 October 2026
17 Oct 2026
If you're on a Skilled Worker, Health and Care Worker or Scale-up Worker visa, or hoping to get one, the register of licensed sponsors has been updated again. GOV.UK shows the page as last updated on 16 October 2026. The latest change history entry reads "Register updated."
This is a later refresh than the 13 October update. The entry does not say which employers were added or removed.
The page describes the register as a list of employers approved to sponsor overseas workers on the Worker and Temporary Worker routes. Your visa depends on your employer holding a valid sponsor licence. So check the register before you rely on a job offer or a Certificate of Sponsorship. Open the GOV.UK page, use the latest version of the register and look up your employer's name.
