How do I get a share code to prove my Right to work in the UK?

Summary

The right to work share code was introduced in July 2019, as part of a post-Brexit law. They are used to ease the process of verifying an employee’s right to work in the UK, for both the employee and employer.

If llama.id has asked you for a share code, this is because you either have a passport of a NON-UK country or have a British overseas passport. 

A share code is also required for European citizens following the introduction of the EU settlement scheme by the UK government.
