Register your company for PAYE quickly and correctly

If your UK business employs staff or pays directors a salary, you must register for PAYE (Pay As You Earn) with HMRC. PAYE is the system HMRC uses to collect Income Tax and National Insurance from employee wages and director salaries. Registering ensures you stay compliant with UK employment law and avoid fines or delays when paying your team.

Even if you only employ yourself as a director, PAYE registration may still be required to report your salary properly.

What is PAYE Registration?

PAYE (Pay As You Earn) is the system HMRC uses to collect Income Tax and National Insurance directly from employee wages and director salaries. If your company employs staff — or if you pay yourself a salary as a director — you must register for PAYE with HMRC before running payroll.

Once registered, your business will be able to:

  • Deduct tax and National Insurance contributions from employees’ pay.
  • Report payroll information to HMRC in real time.
  • Provide payslips and annual summaries (such as P60s) to staff.

Setting up PAYE correctly ensures you stay compliant with UK employment law, avoid penalties, and build trust with employees by paying them accurately and on time.

Why Might You Need to Register for PAYE?

You must register for PAYE with HMRC if your company:

  • Employs staff who earn above the National Insurance Lower Earnings Limit (£123 per week for 2025/26).
  • Pays directors a salary that is subject to Income Tax or National Insurance.
  • Provides employees with taxable benefits (such as company cars or medical insurance).

Many businesses also choose to register early to:

  • Set up payroll correctly from the start and avoid compliance issues.
  • Ensure staff are paid on time with the right tax and National Insurance deductions.
  • Build trust with employees and demonstrate professionalism.

You may need to register for PAYE when:

  • Your company employs staff earning above the Lower Earnings Limit (£123 per week for 2025/26).
  • You pay yourself a salary as a director that is subject to Income Tax or National Insurance.
  • You provide employees with taxable benefits such as company cars, health insurance, or bonuses.
  • You want to run payroll correctly from the start and keep your business fully compliant with HMRC.

Registering for PAYE ensures you meet your legal obligations, avoid HMRC penalties, and give employees confidence that they are being paid accurately and on time.

  • You stay compliant with HMRC payroll rules.
  • Employees and directors are paid correctly with the right tax and NI deductions.
  • You avoid unexpected fines or backdated payments.
  • Your business maintains a professional and trustworthy reputation with staff.
