Veterinary nurse 2024-2025 annual renewal process reminder

The 2024-2025 annual renewal process for veterinary nurses will begin in mid/end of September and, ahead of this, we are asking veterinary nurses to check their registration details.

In preparation for the annual renewal, we ask that all VNs please visit their RCVS My Account to ensure their contact details are up-to-date and keep an eye on their email inboxes for further instruction.

As with previous years, in order to remain on the Register of Veterinary Nurses, VNs must pay their annual renewal fee by 1 November (the start of their registration year).

Registration renewal consists of three stages:

1. Ensuring contact details are up-to-date
2. Completion of the disclosures: Declaration of any convictions, cautions and/or adverse findings (confirmation of CPD compliance is no longer required, as this is now automatically recorded via the 1CPD app)
3. Payment of the annual renewal fee

Please note, all VNs will need to pay their renewal fees via their RCVS My Account unless they have an existing direct debit set up, or an existing agreement with their employer to cover the fee. If you do not already have a direct debit set up but wish to pay your annual fee in this way, you must set one up by 16 October 2024.

VNs who do not complete their disclosures by 1 November 2024 will be sent fortnightly reminders to do so via email. Failure to complete the annual renewal fee process by 31 December 2024 will result in removal from the Register.
