The government has updated its digital right-to-work check procedure. As a result, you can now use digital identity verification to confirm you have the right to work in the UK.
To meet the new guidelines, we’ve teamed up with government-certified identity service provider Yoti and its partner, the Post Office. When you register with us, we’ll use Yoti’s Identity Verification service to confirm your identity.
The service is a simple two-step process which involves capturing an image of your ID document and taking a photo of yourself. Using the latest technology, Yoti matches your photo to your ID and checks the document is genuine.
This guide will explain how to use the service. You can also download the guide here for future reference.
