Check if a business is registered for money laundering supervision
14th April 2025
Find out if a business has registered with HMRC under the money laundering regulations and report them if they have not.
A full list of HMRC registered businesses is available in the Supervised Business Register.
We aim to keep the register up to date. However, sometimes there can be a delay in a business's registration appearing on the public register.
Who should be in the register
Only businesses registered for supervision by us will appear. The name a business is registered under may be different from the name you're familiar with if, for example, they’re included under the registration of another business.
Businesses currently applying for registration will not appear until this process is finished. You may want to contact the business directly to confirm their current registration status.
It’s important that businesses involved in activity, supervised by us under the money laundering regulations, register to receive guidance on:
money laundering, terrorist finance, and proliferation financing risks
their obligations under the money laundering regulations and how to meet them
Confirmation that a business is registered with us is not an endorsement for you to enter into any commercial transactions with the business.
Contents of the register
Each entry contains details that businesses give when they register with us. The list helps you decide whether you are dealing with a business who is registered with us. It lists the:
registration number
business name
trading name
first part of the postcode
date the business became supervised
sectors they’re registered for
