No. KleanDrive Ltd in Scarborough is no longer on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors (removed on 11 August 2026), and Companies House shows the company has ceased trading. It cannot sponsor new visa applications. ### When did KleanDrive Ltd leave the sponsor register? KleanDrive Ltd left the register on 11 August 2026. Companies House shows the company was winding up or had ceased trading. GOV.UK gives no reason, so this does not establish why the licence ended. ### What visa routes can KleanDrive Ltd sponsor? KleanDrive Ltd was licensed for Skilled Worker. Its licence rating on the register is "Worker (A rating)". ### Where is KleanDrive Ltd based? The register lists KleanDrive Ltd at North Sea Winches Ltd Dunslow Road, Eastfield, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, United Kingdom, YO11 3UT. This is usually the head office; the job itself may be somewhere else. ### How current is this information?
