Persons who are registered under the Profession, Trade and Business Registration Act, Cap. 373 are reminded that the deadline for renewing their registration and paying the prescribed annual fee is January 31st, 2023. Any person who fails to pay the prescribed fee before the deadline will also be required to pay a penalty of the same amount.

It is now possible to pay the annual licence fee online via EZPay+, the official payment gateway of the Barbados Government.

If you are registered with the Registrar of the Supreme Court, you can collect your certificate by visiting the Registration Department of the Supreme Court Complex at Whitepark Road, St. Michael.

If you are registered with the Chief Labour Officer, your certificate may need to be collected from the Labour Department at 3rd Floor West, Warrens Office Complex, St. Michael. If you are not sure, call +1 (246) 535-1523 or +1 (246) 535-1524. Alternatively, e-mail the Chief Labour Officer: clo@labour.gov.bb.

Allow five working days after payment before collecting your certificate. Make sure you have a copy of your payment receipt available, either printed or displayed on an electronic device.

Please note it is not possible to use EZPay+ for first time registrations. Persons who are not registered will need to attend in person to have their documentation authenticated and to pay the prescribed fee.

For first time registrations with the Registrar of the Supreme Court, visit the Registration Department at Whitepark Road.

For first time registrations with the Chief Labour Officer, visit the Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Third Sector at the Warrens Office Complex.
