Apply for registration to act as Insolvency Practitioner in Great Britain


I wish practice as an insolvency practitioner under the provisions of EU Directives 2005/36 & 2006/123
 
I wish to apply for registration to act as an insolvency practitioner in GB on a temporary or occasional basis.

The Insolvency Service has entered into an agreement with the seven Recognised Professional Bodies who, with the Secretary of State, are responsible for authorisation of insolvency practitioners in GB, that it will deal with all applications for registration as a temporary /occasional provider.

Service providers are reminded that they will have to comply with the requirements of Parts 3 & 4 of the Insolvency Practitioner Regulations 2005 (SI 2005 No.524) http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2005/uksi_20050524_en.pdf and The Provision of Services (Insolvency Practitioner) Regulations 2009 (SI 2009 No. 3081) http://www.opsi.gov.uk/si/si2009/uksi_20093081_en_1

Any person intending to act as an office holder should provide a copy of their bonding arrangements together with other necessary documentation to the Secretary of State. It is intended to provide an example of bonding arrangements applicable to GB service providers in due course. 

Applicants for registration as a service provider should be aware that prior to the provision of services they will need to complete a declaration in advance of the provisions of services and provide relevant documents.

Once completed the documents should be sent to Insolvency Practitioner Policy Section, The Insolvency Service, 21 Bloomsbury Street London WC1B 3QW; telephone 0207 291 6772or  e-mail IPPolicy.section@insolvency.gsi.gov.uk
