Sponsor compliance checklists

    General HR guidance only—seek legal advice for complex cases.

    Holding a sponsor licence comes with ongoing duties: reporting changes within set deadlines, keeping records for at least five years, tracking visa expiry dates and absences, and staying audit‑ready at all times. Failing to meet these obligations can lead to licence downgrade, suspension, or revocation.

    Our Sponsor Licence guide includes a full HR compliance summary with step‑by‑step checklists covering pre‑application preparation, post‑licence duties, record‑keeping essentials, and downloadable templates.
