If you are an employer that has registered for Pay As You Earn (PAYE) for Employers then you will have received a payslip booklet from HMRC. This will have your PAYE Reference number printed on it. It will be a similar format to 123/AB456.

I can’t find my Payslip booklet, now what?

If you have an accountant our first suggestion would be to get in touch with them as your PAYE Reference is required each time you run payroll.

If you don’t have an accountant then you’ll need to get in touch with HMRC to request the information.
