What's the minimum salary for a UK Skilled Worker visa in 2026?
Minimum salary thresholds are set per occupation code and reviewed periodically — there is no single number across all roles, and the threshold also interacts with the new earned-settlement income fast-tracks, so it's worth checking both together.
Key points
- Thresholds are set per specific occupation (SOC code), not a flat UK-wide minimum.
- Some occupations on shortage-adjusted lists carry lower thresholds.
- £50,270 and £125,140 are separately relevant as ILR fast-track income levels.
- Confirm the current threshold for your specific role before finalizing an offer.
