No. NanoSUN Ltd in Lancaster is no longer on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors (removed on 11 September 2026), and Companies House shows the company has ceased trading. It cannot sponsor new visa applications. ### When did NanoSUN Ltd leave the sponsor register? NanoSUN Ltd left the register on 11 September 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 NanoSUN Ltd sponsor? NanoSUN Ltd was licensed for Skilled Worker. Its licence rating on the register is "Worker (A rating)". ### Where is NanoSUN Ltd based? The register lists NanoSUN Ltd at Abraham Heights Farm, Westbourne Road, Lancaster, United Kingdom, LA1 5EF.
