How to register
For trustees: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/register-a-trust-as-a-trustee
For agents: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/register-your-clients-trust
Proof of Registration
Once the registration process has been completed, if the trustee or agent needs to download a proof of registration document to provide to a relevant person (see TRSM70030), they will need to log out and then re-enter the register to download the proof of registration document.
The declaration document and pdf provided at the end of registration is not the proof of registration document.
How to register if trustees are unable to use the online service
If trustees are unable to use the online Trust Registration Service due to being digitally excluded, they may be able to apply to register via a paper form. This may be because:
- it’s not practical for the trustee to use online services — this may be due to their age, disability, location, or another reason
- the trustee is a practicing member of a religious society (or order) whose beliefs are incompatible with using electronic communications or keeping electronic records
Trustees will need to explain how these reasons apply to their own circumstances.
