Tier 2 Sponsorship Licence Application
Following the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union and the fallout of Brexit, all companies who wish to employ skilled workers from outside the United Kingdom who do not have the right to work or live in the UK will need a Licence in order to comply with the law.
The Tier 2 Sponsor Licence:
- Allows a UK Company to source talent from outside the UK. Occasionally, local talent is not enough to fill staff vacancies which, can affect your company’s productivity. With a Tier 2 Sponsorship Licence, you will have the ability to recruit employees from outside the UK.
- Required the Company to conform with ongoing compliance obligations. The Home Office will expect you to have robust systems in place to ensure that the migrant skilled workers you hire do not breach immigration laws.
- It allows non-UK National employees to transfer to a UK branch. If your Company has headquarters or a Branch outside the UK, but you need to temporarily bring an employee to the UK, having a Sponsorship Licence will allow you to do so.
Our expert immigration solicitors have many years of experience in assisting businesses in the UK to obtain Sponsorship Licences. Our solicitors can take a look at your organisation’s policies, practices and documents to ensure they are in line with regulations. We can also advise on the best action to take should changes need to be made. In addition, we also offer mock audits to firms wishing to test their HR systems.
