Our Services

Sponsorship Licence Applications

Our solicitors will meticulously assess your business’s eligibility for a sponsorship licence and help you prepare a robust application. We ensure that your documentation is accurate and complete, significantly improving your chances of a successful outcome. 

The application process includes providing evidence of your business’s legitimacy, such as proof of registration, accounts and operational capabilities. For detailed guidelines on how to apply, you can refer to the UK Government’s official page on applying for a sponsor licence.

Compliance and Audit Support:

Once your sponsorship licence is granted, maintaining compliance with the Home Office’s strict requirements is crucial. 

Our services extend to providing ongoing guidance on your sponsor duties, which include reporting changes in your sponsored employees’ status, managing the Sponsor Management System (SMS) and ensuring all sponsorship activities are compliant with immigration laws. 

We also offer regular mock audits to help you stay prepared for any Home Office inspections. For more on compliance, refer to the GOV.UK’s guide on sponsorship duties and compliance.

Skilled Worker Visas:

Once your sponsorship licence is approved, we can assist your prospective employees in obtaining Skilled Worker visas to work in the UK. 

Our team will guide them through the application process, ensuring that all requirements, such as the appropriate skill level, salary threshold and English language proficiency, are met. The UK Government’s page on sponsoring a skilled worker provides further information on this process.

Intra-Company Transfers:

For multinational companies looking to transfer employees to their UK branch, we offer expertise in securing Intra-Company Transfer visas. This service is ideal for businesses seeking to move executives or specialist staff between global offices. 

The process involves demonstrating that the transfer meets the Home Office’s criteria, which includes ensuring that the role is genuine and that the employee has been with the company for a specified period.

Sole Representative Visas:

If you are a representative of an overseas business intending to set up a branch or wholly-owned subsidiary in the UK, we can facilitate your visa application under the Sole Representative Visa route. This service includes advising on the required documentation, such as proof of business operations abroad and the employee’s role within the company.
