Renew your registration

To continue practising as a pharmacist or pharmacy technician, you need to renew your registration every year.

Every year, you must renew your registration and submit your revalidation records. This needs to be done at least two months before your registration expires and is required by law. If you don’t, you’ll be removed from the register and won’t be able to practice.
