We encourage you to check periodically (every 3 to 6 months) that your employees remain registered
It's particulary important to check they sucessfully renew their registration during each renewal window, as if they don't they may be removed from the Register.
You can check the registration status of your employees using their surname or registration number. A registration number has up to six numbers, and starts with two letters, for example PH123456.
Checking many individuals at once
Our Multiple Registrant Search (MRS) tool gives you the ability to check the registration status of up to 100 individuals at once, so it's ideal for employers who may need to check the status of many individuals at one time.
The information is pulled from the same source as the main Online Register and the results are presented in real time.
How to use the Multiple Registrant Search tool:
Before you start to use the service, you will first need to know and have a list of the registration numbers of all the individuals whose registration status that you wish to check.
A registration number has up to six numbers, and starts with two letters, for example PH123456.
