To apply for a certificate of residence in the UK, you can:
- use the online service (sign-in or set up a Government Gateway account)
- email the form (no sign-in)
Before you start
This form should be used by individuals who need a certificate of residence from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC). You can find more guidance in the International Manual.
HMRC will carry out checks on the information you give. This may result in an exchange of information with the tax authorities of the other country, under the relevant Double Taxation Agreement or legislation.
If you’re not an individual (for example, if you’re a limited company or a trust) you can’t use this form.
