The Certificated Enforcement Agent (Bailiff) Register
This register holds details of all enforcement agents in England and Wales who hold a certificate allowing them to enforce debts and fines using the Taking Control of Goods procedure.
Certificates to use the Taking Control of Goods procedure are issued by judges in the County Court. Individuals must re-apply for a certificate every two years.
You can search this register to see if an individual claiming to be an enforcement agent with authority to use the Taking Control of Goods procedure has a valid certificate from a court.
To search the register, enter the enforcement agent’s name or employer in the box below and click find.
If you cannot find the name of a certificated enforcement agent on this register, you can ask the court to check their details by sending an email to cbregister@justice.gov.uk
