Yes. Article 19 in London is on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors and has been since at least 2013. It can sponsor workers from overseas, but not every job it advertises comes with sponsorship. ### What visa routes can Article 19 sponsor? Article 19 is licensed for Charity Worker, Global Business Mobility: Senior or Specialist Worker and Skilled Worker. Its licence rating on the register is "Temporary Worker (A rating)". ### Where is Article 19 based? The register lists Article 19 at Sayer Vincent, Invicta House, 108-114 Golden Lane, London, England, EC1Y 0TL. This is usually the head office; the job itself may be somewhere else. ### How current is this information?
