Claim a matched record
Claims are free internal review requests. Start from a current exact-name match; no purchase or opened report is required. A claim does not prove identity, change the public source, link a public record or create an External Transport Manager profile.
Fields marked as required must be completed.
To claim a Transport Manager record on this service, first use the full-name lookup and identify a genuine exact-name match that you believe relates to you. The claim process asks Operator Licence Check to review whether that matched record can be linked to you on this service. Claims are free and are reviewed before a record is linked or changed.
Claiming a record does not certify professional standing. A same-name Transport Manager record can relate to another person, and a match does not prove identity, a current appointment, CPC status, good repute or suitability for a particular transport operation.
What a record claim does on this service
The claim component on this page is for an individual who believes a matched Transport Manager record returned by the service relates to them. Follow the fields shown in the claim component and provide only the information it asks for. The request is reviewed before any record is linked or changed.
The underlying lookup is a full-name check against a source snapshot. Only a genuine exact-name match may reveal the choice to open a matched record. Matching text helps identify a candidate record, but the name alone is not enough to establish who the record relates to.
Check the context before you claim
Before submitting a claim, compare the contextual details available in the matched record with what you know about your own operator licensing history. Do not rely on the name alone. If the details point to another person with the same name, do not claim that record.
A Transport Manager name appearing in information also says nothing by itself about a present appointment. It should not be treated as evidence that a person currently acts for a particular operator or can take on a new role.
- Check that the full name is an exact match.
- Compare the available record context rather than relying on the name alone.
- Treat historical or information as information, not a statement of the current position.
Use corrections or removal when the record is wrong
If the issue is not whether the matched record relates to you, but information displayed about it, use the Corrections and Removal Requests route. That includes information you believe is inaccurate, misattributed or should be reviewed for removal.
A claim and a correction serve different purposes. A claim asks the service to review whether a matched record relates to you. A correction or removal request asks the service to review what is displayed or whether it should remain displayed.
Privacy and data-rights questions
For privacy information, including the route for data-rights questions, read the Privacy Information page. The ICO source listed below explains individual data protection rights.
Keep a claim focused on the matched record and the information requested by the claim component. If your concern is primarily about privacy, accuracy or removal rather than linking the record, use the relevant privacy or corrections route instead. Service Terms are available through the site's legal navigation.
A claim does not replace current regulatory checks
Linking a record on this service does not establish CPC status, good repute, suitability or a current Transport Manager appointment. Those are separate matters and can depend on the current licence position and the circumstances of the operation.
If you are assessing a person for a Transport Manager role, compare the available context and make the appropriate current checks. The claim function should not be used as evidence that the person can exercise continuous and effective management of the relevant transport activities for a particular licence.
Need a correction instead?
If the displayed record is inaccurate, misattributed or should be reviewed for removal, use the dedicated corrections and removal route.
