Right to work, visas and moving to Glasgow

Proving your right to work

Employers must check your right to work. If you are not a British or Irish citizen, you may be asked for a share code or eligible documents.

Visa sponsorship

Some employers sponsor eligible roles, but sponsorship depends on the occupation and whether the employer is a licensed sponsor. Treat “visa guaranteed” promises as a red flag unless the vacancy clearly states sponsorship and eligibility.

Checklist: what you need to start

  • Proof of identity (as requested by the employer)
  • Proof of right to work (share code or eligible documents)
  • Bank details for payroll
  • Contact details and an up-to-date CV
  • National Insurance number (apply as soon as possible if you do not have one)
Note: you can often start work before you receive a National Insurance number if you can prove your right to work.

Safety: avoid scams and illegal fees

Use these checks before sending documents or accepting an offer.

  • Never pay “to get a job” or to secure an interview slot.
  • Request a written offer/contract with clear employer name, location, hours, and pay calculation.
  • Be cautious of vague “visa guaranteed” messages without eligibility details or licensed-sponsor confirmation.
  • Verify the company identity and role details before sharing sensitive documents.
