Submitting a SNIN

Please submit your SNIN form as far in advance of starting work on site as possible but at the latest:

Standard, non-hazardous sites: 4 weeks before start date

Hazardous or non-traditional sites: 8 weeks before start date

You can submit a SNIN form to NHBC, in the following ways:

Email:​​​​ To SNINEnquiries@nhbc.co.uk

My NHBC Portal: From your organisation home page, select "Add new site" or by selecting "Upload organisation documents"

Post: To NHBC House, Davy Avenue, Knowlhill, Milton Keynes, Bucks, MK5 8FP.

What happens next?

Step 1 We’ll process your SNIN form and generate a site reference number

Step 2 We will ask you to complete a Product Plot Schedule about the plots you’d like to register for warranty

Step 3 We will register your plots and issue you with a formal quote for Buildmark cover

Step 4 Once you have paid for Buildmark cover, we will send you confirmation of your policy number(s)

Step 5 We will send you a link to our Conveyancer Portal, along with activation codes for each plot that you can pass on to your home buyers’ legal representative

Intended commencement of work declaration

If you are requesting NHBC Building Control Services, you are also required to submit an Intended commencement of work declaration along with your SNIN form.
