Sponsor Licence Compliance
Securing a sponsor licence is only the beginning. To retain it, your business must comply with strict Home Office duties. These include maintaining accurate records, reporting changes to your workforce, conducting right-to-work checks, and ensuring that sponsored roles meet visa requirements. Failure to meet these obligations can result in licence downgrading, suspension, or revocation—disrupting your operations and your employees’ immigration status.
At AAGA Solicitors, we help employers maintain compliance from day one. We offer tailored advice on record-keeping, internal HR procedures, and audit readiness. We also conduct mock compliance audits, prepare you for unannounced visits, and assist with reporting obligations through the Sponsorship Management System (SMS).
Whether you’re new to sponsorship or managing a growing migrant workforce, we ensure your business stays aligned with immigration rules while supporting your broader staffing goals.
