Frequently asked questions
Can I register with a GP without immigration status in the UK?
Yes. NHS GP practices are required to register everyone, including asylum seekers, refused asylum seekers and undocumented migrants. You do NOT need: ID, proof of address, immigration status. NHS England guidance explicitly forbids refusing. If a GP refuses, that is a violation.
What documents are needed for registration?
Formally — none. In practice, the GP may ask for an address (even temporary — Home Office hotel, hostel, friend's address). If you have an ARC card or Home Office letter, bring it. Asylum seekers should say upfront: "I am an asylum seeker, I need to register".
What is included in free NHS services?
GP consultations, A&E emergency care, infection treatment, ambulance, medical examinations, vaccinations, treatment of chronic conditions, mental health services. Asylum seekers and refugees get everything for free. Only paid: dentist (NHS dentist may be free for asylum seekers), optician, prescriptions (£9.90, but free for asylum seekers with HC2 cert).

Not GP — call NHS 111 (free, 24/7, interpreters available). For life-threatening emergencies — 999 or go to the nearest A&E (Accident & Emergency). Both free for everyone in the UK regardless of status.
