Registration first
Professional registration before you practise
Before you can practise in many UK healthcare roles, you may need registration with the correct UK professional body. A sponsor licence job search is only one part of the journey. Doctors, dentists, nurses, midwives, pharmacists, optometrists, social workers and many allied health professionals must check their professional registration route before applying for regulated roles.
GTN helps you understand which regulator may apply to your profession, what documents are commonly needed, and how to plan your registration steps alongside your UK job search.

Home Office checks
What must be checked before a healthcare application
Eligibility always depends on the exact job, occupation code, licensed sponsor, salary, Certificate of Sponsorship and current Home Office rules.
Check the occupation code
The job must match an eligible occupation code. Similar job titles can sit under different codes, so the exact job matters.
Check the licensed sponsor
The employer must be approved to sponsor workers, and the job must be offered by that employer under the correct route.
Check salary and going rate
Healthcare and education jobs can have specific salary rules, so always check the current salary route for the job.
Check the Certificate of Sponsorship
A visa application relies on a Certificate of Sponsorship from the employer, with the job details and sponsor licence information.
Do not pay for fake sponsorship.
GTN is an information and listings service. We are not a recruitment agency and not an immigration adviser. We never guarantee a job, a visa or a Certificate of Sponsorship. Apply directly, check the employer and avoid anyone asking for money in exchange for a job offer. For advice on your own case, consult an adviser registered with the Immigration Advice Authority, the IAA, or a qualified solicitor.
