Common questions about Defected Records Limited

Is Defected Records Limited a licensed UK visa sponsor?
Yes. Defected Records Limited in London holds a UK sponsor licence and appears on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors, where it has been listed since 2013. That means it is permitted to sponsor eligible workers from overseas, though a licence is permission to sponsor rather than a guarantee that any particular vacancy is open to sponsorship.
What visa routes can Defected Records Limited sponsor?
Defected Records Limited is licensed for Creative Worker and Skilled Worker. Its licence is recorded on the register as "Temporary Worker (A rating)" — the rating reflects the Home Office's confidence in the sponsor's compliance record.
Where is Defected Records Limited based?
The register lists Defected Records Limited at Ground Floor, 23 Curtain Road, London, England, EC2A 3LT. This is the address on the sponsor licence, which is usually the head office — a sponsored role may be based at a different site.
