How to maintain your registered political party

You can remove your party from the register. 

However, you may still have reporting obligations after your party is removed.

There is no fee to remove your party from the register. We will write to you to confirm that your party has been deregistered.

We will also remove your party from the register if you don’t confirm your annual registration.

Submit online

You can deregister your party using PEF Online. 

Other ways of deregistering your party

If you cannot confirm online, you can complete a form and return it to us.

Your reporting obligations

If your party was deregistered because you did not complete your annual registration confirmation, then you must continue with your party's reporting obligations until the end of your party's financial year.

If you have voluntarily deregistered your party, then it depends on your party's income and expenditure for its previous financial year:

• if both your income and your expenditure were under £25,000, you must continue with your reporting obligations until the end of your party's financial year
• if either your income or expenditure was over £25,000, you must continue with your reporting obligations until the end of your party's next financial year
