Supplying replacement payslips and P60 documents across the UK since 1992
About Us
Since 1992, Payslips Plus has been providing reliable replacement payslips and payroll documents across the UK from our office in Liverpool. We understand how stressful it can be to lose important financial records, especially when they are needed urgently for applications or verification.
Our service is designed to be simple and secure. We produce documents using the pay information you provide, formatted to match standard UK payroll layouts including PAYE tax and National Insurance deductions. All information is handled confidentially, giving you peace of mind throughout the process.
Can I request old payslips directly from HMRC?
No. HMRC does not issue payslips and cannot send you a copy of one. Payslips are produced and issued by your employer.
HMRC does hold the same pay and tax figures your payslip contains, because your employer reports every payment under Real Time Information. You can view this record in two places:
• Your personal tax account at gov.uk/personal-tax-account
• The free HMRC app for iOS and Android
Both show your taxable pay and the tax deducted by each employer, tax year by tax year. You can print the record or save it as a PDF. It is not a payslip and does not look like one, but the figures come directly from HMRC.
To sign in, you need a Government Gateway ID. If you do not have one, you can create it at gov.uk using your National Insurance number and one form of identification. If you are looking for a P60 rather than a payslip, see our guide on how to find your P60 online.
How can I get my old payslips from my old employer?
Contact the payroll or HR department directly. A written request works best because it creates a record.
Include in your request:
• Your full name and any previous name used while employed
• Your National Insurance number
• Your payroll or employee number, if you have it
• The exact pay periods or tax years you need
• Where to send the documents
Allow around two weeks for a former employer to respond. Current employers are usually faster. For more detail, read our guide on how long employers keep payslips.
If the company has closed down, search the Companies House register at find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk. This will show whether the business was dissolved or taken over. If another company acquired it, that company may hold the payroll records. If it was dissolved, the records may no longer exist, and your HMRC personal tax account becomes your best source.
Employer record keeping period for payslips in the UK
Employers must keep PAYE records for at least three years from the end of the tax year they relate to. Many keep them for six years for other legal reasons, but they are not required to.
What this means in practice:
Within the last 3 tax years
Your employer is still required to hold the records. A written request should be enough.
3 to 6 years ago
Many employers still hold the records but are not obliged to provide them. It is worth asking.
More than 6 years ago
Your former employer is unlikely to still hold the record. Your HMRC personal tax account is usually the only remaining source.
The UK tax year runs from 6 April to 5 April, so “three years” is measured from the end of the tax year, not from the pay date.
Legal obligation for UK employers to provide payslips
Under Section 8 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, every UK employer must give each worker a written itemised pay statement on or before payday.
Since 6 April 2019, this right applies to all workers, not just employees. It covers zero-hours workers, agency workers and casual staff. People who are genuinely self-employed are not entitled to payslips.
Five items are legally required on a payslip:
1. The worker’s name
2. Gross pay
3. Net pay
4. Each variable deduction, itemised separately
5. A total for fixed deductions
For a breakdown of what each deduction means, see payslip deductions explained. Where pay varies by time worked, the payslip must also show the number of hours paid. This was added in April 2019.
Tax code, National Insurance number and employer details are commonly included but are not legally required. Electronic payslips are acceptable. The law requires a written statement, not paper, so email or a secure portal both satisfy the requirement as long as the worker can access and keep a copy.
If an employer fails to provide a payslip, or provides an incomplete one, a worker can bring a claim to an employment tribunal. Under Section 11, a tribunal can order repayment of unnotified deductions for up to 13 weeks before the claim.
Read more about when you should get your payslip.
Can you get your payslips online?
In most cases, yes, if your employer uses an online payroll system.
Most UK employers now store payslips as downloadable PDFs in a payroll portal. Log in and look under headings such as Documents, Tax Documents, Year End, or Payslips.
Common systems and where the documents are kept:
Sage HR: Documents, then Year End Documents
Xero Me: Payslips, then P60
BrightPay Connect: Documents section
MyPayWindow: Annual Documents
Employment Hero: Payroll, then Tax Documents
If you have forgotten your login, use the password reset before contacting payroll it is usually faster. Access normally ends when you leave the job. If you have already left and can no longer log in, your options are a written request to your former employer or your HMRC personal tax account.

Is a replacement payslip legal?
Yes, where the figures are accurate.
A replacement payslip is a recreation of a document you were legally entitled to receive in the first place. Under Section 8 of the Employment Rights Act 1996, every UK worker has the right to an itemised pay statement. Requesting a copy of your own payroll record is entirely lawful.
It is, however, a criminal offence to knowingly submit a document containing false financial information to a lender, landlord, or public authority. Our service exists to replace genuine records that have been lost or are no longer accessible. Before we produce any document, we ask you to confirm that the pay information you have provided is a true and accurate reflection of your actual earnings.

What replacement payslips are used for
A payslip is one of the most important documents used to confirm your income. If your original payslip is lost, damaged, or unavailable, we provide replacement payslips based on the pay information you provide.
These are commonly used for:
• Personal financial records
• Rental agreements and tenant checks
• Loan and finance applications
• Mortgage and remortgage applications
Not sure whether a payslip is enough on its own? Read is a payslip proof of employment. Each payslip includes a clear breakdown of gross pay, deductions, PAYE tax, and National Insurance. Requirements vary between organisations.
Some lenders and agents accept replacement documents without question; others ask for originals issued by the employer, or verify income directly through open banking. It is worth checking what your recipient will accept before ordering.
Replacement P60 Certificates UK (End of Year Summary)
A P60 is issued by your employer after 5 April each year, and must reach you by 31 May. You only receive one if you were still employed on 5 April. If you left before that date, you receive a P45 instead.
See the difference between a P45 and a P60.
A P60 is an official record of your total income and tax paid during a tax year. If your original document is missing, replacing it quickly is important for financial and tax-related processes. If you were not working during a tax year, read how to get a P60 if unemployed.
