Common questions about Open Text UK Limited
- Is Open Text UK Limited a licensed UK visa sponsor?
- Yes. Open Text UK Limited in READING 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 Open Text UK Limited sponsor?
- Open Text UK Limited is licensed for Global Business Mobility: Senior or Specialist Worker and Skilled Worker. Its licence is recorded on the register as "Worker (A rating)" — the rating reflects the Home Office's confidence in the sponsor's compliance record.
- Where is Open Text UK Limited based?
- The register lists Open Text UK Limited at 420 Thames Valley Park Drive, Thames Valley Park, Reading, Berkshire, England, RG6 1PT. This is the address on the sponsor licence, which is usually the head office — a sponsored role may be based at a different site.

- This page is built from the UK Home Office register of licensed sponsors. We resync the register daily and keep a dated history of every addition and removal, alongside Companies House records for company number 03148093. The register itself is the authoritative source — always confirm on GOV.UK before relying on a licence status.
