    You must use Sponsor Management System (SMS) to submit a Sponsorship Licence renewal application. This is the same tool which is used to issue Certificates of Sponsorship to Tier 2 and Tier 5 employees. It is also the same tool used to keep track of all visa-holding employees. To renew a Sponsor Licence you must present up-to-date and detailed records of all the employees you have sponsored while holding your current Sponsorship Licence.

    If your company is classed as ‘medium’ or ‘large’ (your annual turnover is more than £10.2 million), you will be required to pay £1,476 in Sponsor Licence renewal fees.

    If you knowingly employ workers without a Sponsor Licence, even if you had one when you recruited them, you are employing illegal workers. Employing illegal workers can result in penalties issued by the Home Office, called civil penalties. These are financial punishments, which must be paid by a company or business. UKVI also often suspends a company’s right to employ foreign workers in the future. Illegal worker employers also risk losing their reputation and employees and, in some cases, being imprisoned.
