A certificate of sponsorship (CoS) is a fundamental requirement for individuals seeking to work in the UK under a skilled worker visa. Issued by a licensed UK employer, the CoS acts as a formal job offer, confirming the applicant’s employment details and ensuring that the position meets the necessary immigration criteria. This document contains vital information about the job role, salary, and the employer’s sponsor license number, all of which are essential for the visa application process.
To obtain a Certificate of Sponsorship, employers must be registered with the Home Office as a licensed sponsor and demonstrate that the role cannot be filled by a resident worker. This helps to ensure that the job market is protected while still allowing businesses to recruit international talent. The application for a CoS is completed online, and once issued, it is valid for three months, during which the visa application must be submitted.
Having a Certificate of Sponsorship significantly streamlines the visa process, providing a clear and structured pathway for skilled workers to enter the UK. It is an indispensable part of the immigration process for those looking to bring their expertise to the UK workforce, making the journey to employment smoother and more efficient.
