What is Skilled worker Sponsor Licence
A Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence is permission from the Home Office that allows UK employers to hire skilled migrant workers. This applies to all types of employers—whether you’re a small business, a large company, a charity, or a public sector organisation.
These certificates allow the worker to apply for the Skilled Worker Visa.
To obtain a sponsor licence, employers must demonstrate that they are genuine businesses operating lawfully in the UK, have appropriate HR systems in place to manage sponsorship duties, and meet specific eligibility criteria. Once granted, the licence permits the employer to sponsor foreign workers for roles that meet certain skill and salary thresholds.
As of April 2024, the requirement to renew the sponsor licence every four years has been removed. Licences expiring on or after 6 April 2024 will be automatically extended for an additional 10 years.
Services we offer
Sponsor Licence Applications
We assist UK businesses in preparing and submitting Skilled Worker Sponsor Licence applications to the Home Office. From gathering the required documents to ensuring your business meets all eligibility and compliance requirements, our team offers complete guidance.
Whether you’re applying for the first time or reapplying after a previous refusal, we handle the process with accuracy and care.
Judicial Review Against Sponsor Licence Refusals
If your sponsor licence application has been refused and there is no right of appeal or administrative review, a judicial review may be the only legal remedy. Our solicitors can assess the refusal, prepare a robust Pre-Action Protocol letter, and pursue judicial review proceedings if necessary.
We aim to challenge Home Office decisions efficiently and lawfully.
Sponsor Licence Audits
Compliance is key to keeping your licence. We conduct internal Home Office-style audits to identify and address any weaknesses in your current systems before an actual inspection.
Our audit service ensures your HR and record-keeping practices meet sponsorship duties, helping you avoid enforcement action.
Pre-Action Protocol and Judicial Reviews for Revocation of Sponsor Licence
If the Home Office has notified to revoke your sponsor licence, we act fast to challenge this. There is no formal right of appeal against revocation, but we can file a Pre-Action Protocol letter and, where needed, proceed to judicial review.
Our legal team has experience dealing with urgent licence revocation matters and safeguarding businesses from severe operational disruption.
Representation Against Suspension of Sponsor Licence
A suspension notice can put your recruitment plans on hold and impact your business. We provide legal representation during the suspension process, engage directly with the Home Office, and help prepare a response backed by evidence and legal argument.
Our goal is to reinstate your licence and protect your business continuity.
New COS Applications
We support employers in applying for and assigning Certificates of Sponsorship (CoS) to skilled migrant workers.
Whether you’re assigning your first CoS or managing multiple applications, we ensure that all role requirements, salary levels, and visa conditions are properly met.
Our solicitors also advise on compliance obligations linked to CoS issuance.

Our entire team is extremely grateful to Nara Solicitors for their support in reinstating our sponsorship licence. When our licence was suspended, I spent several days researching to ensure we appointed the right firm to represent us. I held consultation meetings with a number of firms before choosing Nara Solicitors. From the very first meeting, they were clear, responsive, and demonstrated strong experience in this area.
They prepared a robust and detailed representation within a very short timeframe. Samantha was our caseworker, and he is exceptionally knowledgeable about sponsorship compliance and representation. He remained calm throughout the process, listened carefully to all our suggestions, and even responded to queries during out-of-hours times when needed.
Nara Solicitors truly saved our business, along with the approximately 70 staff members on sponsorship, through their effective representation. Thank you, Samantha, and the entire Nara team for your invaluable help. I wholeheartedly recommend them—100%

Outstanding service from Nara Solicitors, specially Sonal ma’am provides excellent, prompt, and detailed legal service. She’s incredibly humble, kind, and skilled at her work. Highly appreciate her professionalism!
Hello everyone, my name is Folake Awofusi, and I just want to share a little bit about my experience with Solicitor Nara and his amazing team — especially solicitor Alisha.
Earlier this year, I went through one of the toughest moments of my life. Out of nowhere, the Home Office cancelled my Skilled Worker visa — even though I was doing everything right. It felt like my whole world just stopped. I didn’t know what to do or where to turn.
Then I reached out to Nara, and honestly, that was the best decision I made. From the very first day, he listened, reassured me, and told me not to lose hope. He submitted the first challenge on April 3rd, and when there was no reply, he went again on May 14th — he just never gave up.
On July 28th, I received the good news that my visa had been reinstated. I can’t even describe how relieved and thankful I was that day! But Nara didn’t stop there — he kept pushing until finally, in October, the Home Office reinstated my family’s visas too.
Through it all, Solicitor Nara and Solicitor Alisha stood by me, supported me, and encouraged me. They were more than just solicitors — they became like family to me.
So I just want to say a big thank you to Nara and Alisha. You truly fought for me, and I’ll never forget it.
If anyone out there is going through any immigration issue, please — don’t lose hope. Contact solicitor Nara Sukhvinder and his team. They are genuine, professional, and they truly care about people.
Thank you so much, Solicitor Nara and
Solicitor Alisha Badhran God bless you both for everything you’ve done for me and my family.

My experience with Nara Solicitors was nothing short of amazing! Their team provided excellent guidance through my/ family visa application process. They are knowledgeable, patient, and organized. I highly recommend them without any reservations.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. You are truly a dedicated organisation to your customers. We will certainly have no hesitation in coming to you should we ever need any legal work to be carried out again in the future, we will also be very happy to recommend your firm to friends and family.
Thank you very much for your hard work.
Thank you very much for your hard work.
I am very happy to share that I got my UK visitor visa approval today. I’m extremely grateful for your assistance with my UK visitor visa application. Getting it approved on the first attempt wouldn’t have been possible without the clear guidance and dedication of Mr. Tejinder & Ms. Nandini. Thank you once again for your excellent service Nara Solicitors. Highly appreciated and recommended.
I would like to express my gratitude to Nara and the team for their continued support with our Sponsorship Licence Compliance Mock Audit. Their invaluable assistance was instrumental in maintaining our A-grade rating during the recent Home Office Compliance Monitoring Visit
I am genuinely obliged to type this. They are hands down the best solicitor services. Services are so premium and prices so affordable than any other firm. They are really amazing and supportive but in this review I really want to give a big shout-out to Alisha. She is one gem of a person. No matter how old your case is, she would make sure to reply to you so promptly if you have the slighest of doubt about anything related or not so related. She is so kind and so genuine. She really treated my case as her own. I know I may appear as a very difficult person at times who would bombard you with so many questions logical or imaginary but she... She is so patient and so welcoming. She never really gives up and aims to provide you with the best options available. I genuinely can write so much about her and it still won't be enough. So if you are someone who are even slightly sceptical that why do Nara Solicitors have all 5 star ratings, trust me they deserve no less. Go to them if the word 'solicitor' scares you because they are more like a genuine friend in need keeping you informed at each step of the process so you can have your calm.
Following two previous refusals of visitor visa application for my mother in law, we approached Nara Solicitors for assistance. The entire process was handled with efficiency.
A special thanks to Nandini Sharma for her outstanding support and guidance. She was always approachable and made every step clear. We finally achieved a successful outcome.I would highly recommend Nara solicitors to anyone needing reliable immigration assistance.
