Orthoptists and paramedics renewals - window closing soon

Orthoptists and paramedics have until 31 August 2023 to complete all steps of the process outlined below.

It is the professional responsibility of all HCPC registrants to complete their renewal on time, if they would like to continue to be on the HCPC Register. We urge all registrants to renew as soon as possible, to ensure they can continue to practise without disruption.

Our Registration team have sent out email and text reminders about the renewal deadline, however you do not need to receive either of these to complete the renewal process.

All steps are necessary to renew your registration 

  • Step 1: Activate your account

  • Step 2: Log in and select renewal section

  • Step 3: Submit information and make declarations

  • Step 4: Pay renewal fee

How do I renew?

You can renew your registration quickly and easily, using your online account. Follow the steps below to do this.

How do I know my renewal is complete?

Your renewal is complete when you have made your declarations, answered the equality monitoring questions and when we have received and processed your payment (or valid direct debit instruction). This can all be done via your online account.  

When your renewal is complete, your record on the online Register will be updated and you will receive confirmation of this via email. If you are unsure whether your renewal is complete, please check the Register or check your online account. 

Check the online Register

What happens if I don’t renew in time?

If you don’t complete these steps by the deadline, or if you remove your direct debit instruction without an alternative payment, you will be removed from the Register.

You will not be able to practise or use any of the protected titles associated with your profession until you are readmitted to the Register

It is vital that you follow all the steps above to ensure you can successfully activate your account, log in and complete your renewal.

What do I do if I no longer need to be registered?

If you no longer need to be registered with the HCPC, you can remove your name from the Register. Find out more about the deregistration process.
