About UKSponsorGrader

Our Mission

UKSponsorGrader is a free, independent platform that helps workers, immigration advisors, and recruiters search the UK Register of Licensed Sponsors.

We make it easy to check whether an employer holds a valid sponsor licence, what visa routes they can use, and how their licence status has changed over time.

What We Do

• Sponsor search — Search 129,000+ licensed sponsors by name, with fuzzy matching.
• Licence tracking — We download the register weekly and track changes: new sponsors, removals, and rating changes.
• Visa routes — See which visa routes each sponsor is licensed for (Skilled Worker, Global Business Mobility, etc.).

Data Source

All data comes from the Home Office Register of Licensed Sponsors, published under the Open Government Licence. We download and process this register weekly to track historical changes.

We do not alter the underlying data. Our value is in making it searchable, trackable, and accessible.

Independence

UKSponsorGrader is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the UK Home Office or any government department. We are an independent project that uses publicly available government data.
