How to renew your registration
Registered translators are required to renew their registration every year, regardless of their status on the Register.
This takes place in the month that the translator was first admitted (for example, if a translator was admitted in July 2011 then renewal should be completed by 1st July each year).
Forms for annual registration are sent out approximately four weeks prior to the month of renewal but if you have not received it please contact admin@nrpst.org.uk
In order to renew your registration you must:
- complete the annual renewal form, sign it (wet signature) and send it to us (could be via email if scanned)
- pay the current renewal fee (see Fees),
- provide an up to date photo
- provide 10,000 words/10 days of translating/10 engagments as evidence of translation (in the public service context and in the past 12 months).
Evidence of Public Service Translation (PST) must include:
- Registrant's name
- date of assignment (or completion of it)
- language pair and direction of translation (each registered language direction must be evidenced)
- the number of words translated (usually based on the source text) or number of days of translation work or number of translation engagements.
Please renew promptly before your twelve month registration period ends as this helps to keep our administration costs down. Payment of renewal fees can be made by credit or debit card via the Translator's Room.
NOTE: You must inform NRPST as soon as possible of any material changes to the details we hold on our records and on the online register. In case of any changes to your security clearance(s) you must inform us immediately.
