Frequently Asked Questions
What is Data Protection Registration and who needs it in the UK?
-
Data Protection Registration (also known as ICO registration) is a legal requirement under the UK GDPR for businesses and organisations that process personal data. Most UK companies—especially those handling customer information—must register with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) and pay a data protection fee.
Is my UK company required to register with the ICO?
+
If your company collects, stores, or uses personal information—such as names, email addresses, payment details, or client data—you are likely required to register with the ICO. This applies to both UK-based and international companies operating in the UK.
How much is the ICO data protection registration fee?
+
The ICO fee ranges from £52 to £2,900 per year, depending on your company size, turnover, and data processing activities. Most small businesses pay £52–£60 annually. Mint can help assess the correct fee tier and complete the registration on your behalf.
What happens if I don’t register for data protection with the ICO?
+
Failure to register with the ICO when required can result in penalties of up to £4,350 and public listing as non-compliant. It may also damage your reputation and affect relationships with clients or suppliers who expect legal compliance.
Can Mint help register my company with the ICO for data protection?
+
Yes. Mint provides a complete ICO registration service, handling the entire application process, fee calculation, and submission. We ensure your company remains fully compliant with UK data protection law.
How long does it take to register with the ICO?
+
Once the application is submitted, ICO registration is typically completed within 1–3 working days, and you will receive your certificate of registration electronically, which can be shared with clients or partners for proof of compliance.
Do I need to renew my ICO registration every year?
+
Yes. ICO registration is renewed annually, and failure to renew can result in penalties. Mint offers renewal support to ensure you never miss a deadline.
Is ICO registration required for online businesses or e-commerce stores?
+
Absolutely. E-commerce sites, freelancers, consultants, marketing agencies, and online service providers typically handle personal data and are therefore required to register with the ICO. Mint ensures your registration is done properly and efficiently.
