What Is the Gas Work Compliance Register?

Legally Verifying Gas Safety Work and Engineer Credentials

If you're a landlord, investor, or property developer in the UK, ensuring that any gas-related work on your property is legally compliant is not optional — it's the law. To meet those obligations, you need to understand how to view the official register of compliant gas work and Gas Safe engineers.


What Is the Gas Work Compliance Register?

In the UK, there is no standalone public-facing "Gas Work Compliance Register." Instead, all legal gas work and registered professionals are overseen and logged by the Gas Safe Register, the UK's official gas registration body.

Key functions of the Gas Safe Register include:

  • Listing all legally certified gas engineers and businesses

  • Verifying engineer licence numbers and qualifications

  • Logging gas safety work carried out by registered individuals

  • Supporting compliance inspections and reporting for landlords and authorities

Landlords and developers must use this register to ensure that any gas work — including boiler servicing, pipework installation, or issuing CP12 gas safety certificates — is conducted by a fully qualified and registered engineer.


How to View and Use the Gas Safe Compliance Register

To check an engineer’s compliance and qualification:

  1. Visit the official Gas Safe Register
    www.gassaferegister.co.uk

  2. Use one of the following tools:

    • “Check an Engineer”: Enter a 7-digit Gas Safe licence number

    • “Find a Business”: Search by postcode or business name

    • “Find an Engineer”: Locate local engineers certified for specific gas appliances (e.g., boilers, fires, meters)

  3. What you’ll find:

    • The engineer’s active registration status

    • Expiry date of their Gas Safe licence

    • Appliance categories they are certified to work on

    • Confirmation of compliance for legal gas safety work 
      Important: Engineers not listed here are not legally permitted to carry out gas work in the UK.


Why It Matters for Landlords and Developers

Under the Gas Safety (Installation and Use) Regulations 1998, UK landlords must:

  • Use only Gas Safe registered engineers

  • Keep a record of all CP12 Gas Safety Certificates

  • Ensure all gas work is legally compliant and documented

  • Provide certificates to tenants within 28 days

Failing to verify engineer credentials and gas work compliance can result in:

  • Invalid insurance cover

  • Legal prosecution or civil penalties

  • Risk to life and severe reputational damage
