What Do I Need to Change When I Move House? (UK Checklist)
Moving home means updating your address in more places than you might expect. From your driving licence and electoral register to your bank, energy supplier, and GP surgery, dozens of organisations need to know where you live now. Missing one can mean fines, lost post, or gaps in your healthcare.
This page is a plain-English checklist of what UK movers commonly forget. Use our free Address Change Directory to select the services that apply to you, track your progress, and open each provider's update page — no account required.
Government
These are the official records you must update after a move. Missing them can affect your right to drive, vote, or receive post from HMRC.
Utilities
Energy, broadband, and mobile providers all need your new address for billing, account security, and service at your new home.
Finance
Banks, insurers, and lenders use your address for identity checks and correspondence. Update them promptly to avoid missed statements or policy issues.
Healthcare
Register with local NHS services near your new home so you can access a GP, dentist, and optician without delay.
Memberships
Retail accounts and loyalty schemes often hold your delivery address. Updating them prevents orders going to your old property.
