Registered Applicant is the status granted to TSPs relating to a specific service or component, for which they have committed to undertake a tScheme Assessment within an agreed schedule.

As an initial step toward gaining tScheme Approval or a Grant of tScheme-Ready Status, Trust Service Providers must apply to tScheme for Registered Applicant status. This in no way implies any form of tScheme approval, but recognises the firm commitment the service provider is making to complete the tScheme Assessment process in a timely manner.

Registered Applicants must submit a successful Assessment report in support of their application for Grant of Approval or Grant of tScheme-Ready Status within a maximum of 12 months.
