# M Group Services: UK sponsor licence history

> As of 30 October 2026, M Group Services (Companies House 10260164, Stevenage) is not on the UK Home Office register of licensed sponsors: it was removed on 21 October 2026, having appeared on the register since 9 June 2021 with an A-rated Worker sponsor licence covering the Skilled Worker route (source: Borderless, from the GOV.UK register of licensed sponsors and Companies House). It cannot sponsor new visa applications while off the register. GOV.UK does not publish why a sponsor leaves, so it was not necessarily revoked.
