Requirement to register with the Police

As a condition of entry into the United Kingdom, or as a condition to remain, certain foreign nationals are required to register with the police in whose area they are to reside within seven days of arrival.

NOTE - only Foreign Nationals who are 16 years of age and over are required to register. If under 16 years old and the VISA shows a requirement to register, they should only register when they reach the age of 16.

Such a requirement is endorsed within the passport of the foreign national by the UK Immigration Service (UKIS) or the Home Office Immigration and Nationality Directorate (HOIND).

In the absence of a passport, the requirement to register with the police will be endorsed in correspondence or documentation supplied to the foreign national by either UKIS or HOIND.

A foreign national who is registered with the police is issued with a Police Registration Certificate (PRC). In addition, the subject's passport is endorsed with the PRC number and date-stamped.

 

Locations to register

The Nationalities Clark for Police Registration is located at the Operations and Communications Centre (OCC), Wymondham, NR18 0WW, Norfolk. Telephone: 01953 424851.

The clerk is available, by appointment only, Tuesday to Thursday from 9am to 1pm, and 2pm to 4pm and a satellite registration surgery is open at the University of East Anglia (UEA) every Monday from 9am to 11am and 11.45am to 3pm.

A foreign national who attends at any other police station or site in the force area to register with the police (including any subsequent changes to their personal circumstances or details) will be directed to the Operations and Communications Centre "registration location" as listed above.
