After registering

After registering you will be sent an email asking you to verify your account.

You will then be able to register for one or more services by answering some security questions, based on the information you have provided us. Once your account has been verified you will only need your username and password to log in to your Self-Service account.

You are able to register to use more than one of our online services (Benefits, Council Tax, Business Rates or Landlord), but you will need to answer different security questions.

For more information please see our registration guide:
