What is the Register of Licensed Sponsors?

The Home Office publishes a list of organisations licensed to sponsor workers on UK work routes. It is a free CSV on gov.uk, updated on working days.

The 20 October 2026 file has 143,175 rows covering 127,788 organisation names. Each row is one organisation on one route.

It has five columns: Organisation Name, Town/City, County, Type & Rating, and Route.

What the register does not contain: job vacancies, occupations, salaries, or whether a given role is sponsored.
