National Insurance Number (NIN)
National Insurance Number (NIN)
If you are on a UK contract with us (code LEUK22), you need a National Insurance Number. As part of this contract, we will make PAYE contributions for you as part of your earnings each month - this includes things like pension and national insurance contributions. A National Insurance Number (‘NIN’) is required to make sure your National Insurance contributions and tax are recorded against your name only. You can find out more about NINs on the UK government website. If you’re not sure what your NIN is, you can typically find it:
- on a payslip
- on a P60
- on letters about your tax, pension or benefits
- in the National Insurance section of your personal tax account.
You do not have to be a UK citizen to get a NIN, you only need to have the right to work.
If you don’t have a NIN you can apply for one here.
If you’ve lost your NIN, you can visit this UK government site for more information.
