Common questions

Does being on this list mean an employer will sponsor my visa?

No. Being listed shows that an employer is allowed, or has been approved, to hire workers from abroad. Whether you can be sponsored depends on the job, the pay and your own circumstances. Check the employer's vacancies and the official immigration rules before you apply.

How do I find a job with a sponsoring employer in Edinburgh?

Choose your sector and city on this page, open the employer's own careers page and look for roles that match your skills. In your application, ask whether the employer sponsors visas for the role. Many adverts say so.

What do A and B ratings mean?

An A rating means the organisation can currently assign certificates of sponsorship to workers. A B rating means it has been put on an action plan and cannot assign new ones until it meets the requirements. We show only A-rated employers unless you tick the box.

How up to date is this list?

It comes from the Home Office register of licensed sponsors, which changes often. A company may have gained or lost a licence since our last import, so confirm on GOV.UK before you rely on it.
