No. Skyfarer Ltd in Rugby is no longer on the Home Office register of licensed sponsors (removed on 19 October 2026), and Companies House shows the company has ceased trading. It cannot sponsor new visa applications. ### When did Skyfarer Ltd leave the sponsor register? Skyfarer Ltd left the register on 19 October 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 Skyfarer Ltd sponsor?

The register lists Skyfarer Ltd at 5 Whitefriars Street, Coventry, West Midlands, England, CV1 2DS.
