Hospitality sponsorship changed on 22 July 2025, when most new Skilled Worker roles moved to degree level. Many restaurant roles that used to qualify no longer do for new hires, so it pays to check before you recruit. Borderless helps you see which roles you can still sponsor, keep the sponsored team you already have, and stay ready for a Home Office visit.

Sponsor the roles that still qualify

Chefs, restaurant managers, and catering and bar managers can now only be sponsored for people who already held Skilled Worker permission before 22 July 2025, and roles such as cooks, waiting staff and bar staff can't be sponsored. We check each role against the current rules before you recruit, and help you keep the sponsored team you already have.
