See what's inside the Foot Care Business Launch Kit — £22Before taking your first client as a mobile foot care business in Holland, it's worth understanding exactly where the Foot Health Practitioner tier ends and the protected clinical titles begin, across Holland and Tandridge.
What the rules say
General foot care carries no statutory minimum qualification -- the hard line sits around the titles "podiatrist" and "chiropodist", which only HCPC-registered practitioners may use. Insurers, care homes and most professional bodies will nonetheless expect recognised training before they'll work with you. As a sole trader, public liability insurance stays optional in law but is close to essential given how hands-on this work is.
Quick answers
Do I need to be HCPC-registered to offer foot care in Holland?
Only if you want to use the titles "podiatrist" or "chiropodist". You can provide general nail/callus/corn care in Holland as a non-registered Foot Health Practitioner without HCPC registration.

Many practitioners in Holland start by building relationships with local care homes, GP surgeries and community groups, alongside word-of-mouth referrals. The Foot Care Business Launch Kit covers a full 30-day plan for getting your first clients.
Do I need insurance to start a mobile foot care business in Holland?
Public liability insurance isn't a legal requirement as a sole trader, but it is close to essential given the hands-on, in-home nature of this work across Holland and Tandridge.
Do care homes in Holland expect any particular checks or certificates?
Many care homes across Holland expect to see evidence of relevant training, insurance, and often a DBS check before letting a practitioner treat residents -- it's worth having these ready before approaching local homes.
