When will my credit record be updated?
The updated full register is published on 1 December each year.
Credit agencies are allowed by law to purchase the full published version of the register for credit checking purposes. There are a number of credit reference agencies in the country that buy our electoral registers.
Please keep in mind it can sometimes take a number of weeks after the new register has been published for the agencies to make their purchases across the county, but if you have any queries regarding your file or notice any inaccuracies on your credit report from any of these agencies, you will need to contact them directly as we are unable to assist.
Monthly updates
Credit agencies also receive monthly register updates. We send these on the first working day of each month.
Applications need to be received before a specific deadline each month to be included in that month's update.
When a person registers to vote or updates their address, we write to them to explain when they will be added to the electoral register.
