In the United Kingdom, for a company to be able to hire an employee from overseas, it must be a licensed sponsor, and to become such a sponsor, there are some basic requisites the company has to meet:
1. The company has to be a legitimate organization, for instance, a corporation or limited-liability partnership, or a sole trader.
2. The company has to be operating legally in the United Kingdom.
3. It must be clear and confirmed that the organization and its key staff are not a threat to the United Kingdom’s immigration control. In other words, the company should not have a history of immigration abuse.
4. The organization has to propose at least three staff members that will execute the jobs related to immigration within the company. Their roles will be: Authorizing Officer, Key Contact, and Level 1 User.
5. The company has to be able to meet its responsibilities as a sponsor. To confirm this, the organization has to prove it has effective HR systems.
6. The organization has to submit all the documentation requested to the Home Office.
7. The company has to meet any other requisites pertinent to the specific tier under which their potential employee(s) will be working.
Even though an organization complies with all the above, receives its sponsorship license, and is included on the sponsor’s register, this does not mean that every employee it chooses will be granted permission to enter and remain in the United Kingdom.
Just as the company, the potential employees have to meet several requisites to get their visa and entry authorization, and they have to remain in compliance with the conditions of their stay.
Any employer wanting to hire workers through the ‘Tier 2 Work Permit’ programme has to have the Employer Sponsorship License.
