The New UK eVisa: 2026 Guide
The UK’s points-based immigration system has seen significant updates for 2026. To maintain a competitive and high-skilled economy, the Home Office has increased the financial and language requirements for most work-based routes.
Key Changes for 2026:
-
The £41,700 Threshold: The general minimum salary for a Skilled Worker visa is now £41,700, or the “going rate” for your specific SOC code—whichever is higher.
-
English Language: Many routes now require a B2 level of English, an increase from the previous B1 standard.
-
The Immigration Salary List (ISL): The ISL is being phased out by December 2026. Roles remaining on the temporary shortage list no longer benefit from salary discounts and must meet a minimum of £33,400.
Securing Your Sponsorship
For employers, the cost of sponsorship has risen by approximately 32% due to increases in the Immigration Skills Charge. Whether you are a business looking to hire or an individual seeking a switch from a Graduate visa, our solicitors provide the RQF-level analysis and salary auditing required to ensure your Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) is legally bulletproof.
