Expand your recruitment search and find the best for your business
If you wish to hire someone from abroad or are a registered charity and want to recruit a volunteer from overseas to work in the UK, you will need to have a sponsorship licence. Unfortunately, acquiring the documentation to sponsor workers outside of the UK is becoming much harder and incredibly complex. As your experienced legal team, our job is to remove the jargon and make the process as straightforward as possible.
Penalties for non-compliance and inaccurate records are significant enough to hurt your business and its reputation. MRG Solicitors will ensure you meet the monitory and compliance requirements before you apply for the licence and help you with renewals and any other issues in the future. Sponsorship licences are valid for 4 years and must be renewed before the expiration date should you wish to continue your worker’s employment. If you need to renew a skilled worker licence, you will need to run through the gamut of new rules and regulations that you may not be aware of, which is when our solicitors prove invaluable. Consult our teams in Manchester and London to learn more.

If you’re looking to acquire a sponsor licence for a migrant worker, you will need to meet the following criteria:

Your business must be based in or operating lawfully in the country
-
Your sponsorship licence must not have been revoked in the last 12 months
-
You must have a suitable system that can supervise sponsored workers and individuals who can manage sponsorship for your business
