The UK Skilled Worker Visa is designed for people who have a job offer from an approved UK employer. This visa allows you to immigrate to UK to live and work, bringing your family along as dependents.
To qualify, your job must be on the list of eligible occupations, which includes a wide range of roles in various fields. These occupations span across sectors like Healthcare, Engineering, Information Technology, Finance, Education, and more. Each job on the UK Skilled Worker Visa eligible occupations list has a corresponding ‘occupation code’ and specific skill level requirements.

You must have a confirmed job offer before you can apply for UK Skilled Worker Visa.
You will usually need to be paid the ‘standard’ salary rate of at least £38,700 per year or the ‘going rate’ of your job - whichever is higher. Each of the occupations eligible for the UK Skilled Worker Visa has its own annual going rate.
You must also prove that you can read, write, speak, and understand English to at least Level B1 on the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) scale.
Before you check if your job is eligible, you will need to find out its 4-digit occupation code. To sponsor immigrants under the UK Skilled Worker Visa, employers must make sure that the role they are offering meets the visa conditions.

Frequently Asked Question
The UK Skilled Worker Visa is a UK immigration route for qualified skilled workers who want to live and work in the UK. Candidates must have a confirmed job offer before they can apply for UK Skilled Worker Visa. The UK Skilled Worker Visa has replaced the Tier 2 (General Visa) Work Visa.
Occupations from all across the country are featured on the UK Skilled Worker Visa Eligible Occupations List mentioned above. The Home Office provides a list of eligible occupations that meet the required skill level and salary threshold.
To check your occupation code, you can search for your job in the CASCOT occupation coding tool. You can try searching for similar jobs if you can’t find the exact job title. Alternatively, you can reach out to the best UK Immigration Consultants in India at Nationwide Visas.
You will usually need to be paid the ‘standard’ salary rate of at least £38,700 per year or the ‘going rate’ of your job - whichever is higher. Each of the occupations eligible for the UK Skilled Worker Visa has its own annual going rate.
It is possible to change jobs under the UK Skilled Worker Visa, as long as you remain with the same employer and your new role has the same occupation code. In case you change your employer or move to a role with a different occupation code, you will need to apply to update your visa.
