Check someone's immigration status: use their share code

Use this service to check someone’s immigration status if you have their ‘share code’.

The share code will have been emailed to you or given to you by the person whose status you’re checking. It expires after 90 days. You will also need the person’s date of birth.

The service will show if they have the right to live in the UK, and any restrictions on their rights or access to benefits and services.

Use a different service to check someone’s right to work or to check their right to rent.
