Why can't I find my employer?

Tips for finding your employer in the application using the registered company name or number.

Written by Joe Wigoder

Our employer search uses the official UK company register, so it works best with your employer's full registered company name or company number.

Try these

  • Search for the full legal name, for example "Example Trading Limited" rather than a brand name like "Example"

  • Search by company number, which you can find on your payslip, employment contract or the Companies House website

  • Try with and without "Ltd" or "Limited"

Still can't find it?

If your employer is based outside the UK or isn't listed, message us on live chat with your employer's name and we'll help you continue your application.
