Self-Sponsorship: Sponsor Yourself for a UK Work Visa

Self-sponsorship is a legal route where you set up your own UK company, obtain a Sponsor Licence, and sponsor yourself for a Skilled Worker Visa. It is an alternative to the Innovator Founder Visa with no endorsement or minimum investment requirement.

How It Works

  • Step 1: Incorporate a UK limited company

  • Step 2: Apply for a Sponsor Licence for the company

  • Step 3: Create a genuine role at the required skill and salary level

  • Step 4: Issue yourself a Certificate of Sponsorship

  • Step 5: Apply for the Skilled Worker Visa

Key Considerations

The Home Office scrutinises self-sponsorship applications carefully. The role must be genuine and not created solely for immigration purposes. The company must be actively trading. The salary must meet the minimum threshold of £38,700 or the going rate.

Self-sponsorship is legal and legitimate, but requires careful planning. One mistake can result in refusal and loss of your Sponsor Licence.
