Common questions

Can I register for CIS on this number?

Not as a subcontractor: registration happens online or by post. The line handles questions about registrations, deductions and monthly returns.

Is the CIS line free?

It is a standard-rate 0300 number: the same cost as calling a landline, inside inclusive minutes on most plans.
