Showcase Your Commitment to Operating Safely Within Current Industry Standards and Legislation

Join businesses around the UK in gaining enhanced consumer trust with a simple, free, mark of compliance that is open to all types of hospitality and tourism businesses. 

The AA, the UK’s leading hospitality assessment scheme provider, alongside VisitEngland, have announced plans to futureproof the hospitality industry with a modernisation plan which simplifies the current quality standards and introduces the new and free Visitor Ready scheme.

Visitor Ready enables hospitality and tourism businesses to showcase their compliance with the laws governing the industry.

The baseline accreditation helps business to know the key safety and cleanliness requirements that today’s visitor expects.

Businesses can check eligibility at VisitorReady.com, upload evidence, confirm key requirements and finish the application in just 20 minutes.

Approved businesses benefit from a secure wallet for key documents, automatic reminders when documents need to be renewed, and a digital badge for their marketing channels.
