Worker visa

05.09.2025 11:55:12 In most cases, a UK work visa (Skilled Worker Visa) requires an official job offer from a licensed sponsor approved by the Home Office. Without such a confirmed offer, you cannot apply for this visa category, as the sponsorship certificate (CoS) issued by the employer is a mandatory document. However, there are limited alternative routes: for example, the Global Talent Visa, which does not require a job offer but instead recognition by an endorsing body in fields such as science, research, digital technology, or arts. Another option could be the Graduate Visa, available if you completed an eligible course in the UK. Therefore, if you do not yet have a job offer, you should either secure one from a licensed employer or explore visa categories that are not tied to sponsorship. A legal consultation can help identify the most suitable route based on your qualifications and personal situation.

05.09.2025 12:03:37 Under UK immigration rules, the main work route — the Skilled Worker visa — requires a confirmed job offer from an employer licensed as a sponsor by the Home Office. Without this, you cannot apply for that category, as the Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) is mandatory. However, there are limited alternatives. For example, the Global Talent visa allows qualified professionals in academia, research, digital technology or arts to apply without a job offer, based on endorsement from an approved body. Another route is the Graduate visa, available to students who recently completed an eligible UK degree — it lets you stay and work without needing sponsorship. There are also niche categories (Innovator Founder, High Potential Individual) with different requirements. The best route depends on your qualifications, field of work and long-term plans, so legal advice is recommended to assess your eligibility.
