The Police Registration scheme, which requires some migrants to register with the police, is suspended with immediate effect.
From 1 August 2022, no-one is required to register under the scheme or update their local police force about changes, even if their immigration documentation says they must.
This change applies to students who have already registered with the Police and who have a condition to register with the police listed as part of their leave to enter or remain in the UK. Students will also no longer be required to communicate any updated personal details to the police.
