Duplicate of a health authorisation
You hold a health authorisation and the copy issued to you has been lost, stolen, destroyed or made illegible. The duplicate reproduces what it says; it neither extends nor alters the right it reproduces. The fee is paid to the Treasury before filing, and the receipt is attached to the application.
Version 1
What it allows
To hold a second copy, marked “duplicate”, of the authorisation issued to you, and to rely on it on the same terms as the original.
Who may apply
The holder of the authorisation, a person or an organisation, or their agent. A withdrawn or expired authorisation cannot be duplicated.
