Your phone reminds you when your own MOT is due. Nothing reminds your family which policies, memberships, and licences need attention if you can't act on them yourself.

England & Wales·Internal instrument — not a government form
A driving licence renews every three years once you turn 70, and DVLA sends a reminder 90 days before — but that's the one thing on your list with an automatic safety net. Everything else relies on you personally noticing, and being able to act.
The renewal-reminder apps that already exist — for cars, for subscriptions — solve exactly one category, for exactly one person: you, while you're around to open the app.
This register solves a different problem: not 'remind me', but 'so someone else knows, if I can't.'
The one with a safety net
Driving licence at 70
Renews every three years once you turn 70, and DVLA sends a reminder 90 days before by post. It's the one item on most people's list with an automatic system behind it.
The ones without
Passports, memberships, policies
Gov.uk's own advice on passports is to apply well before you need to travel — no guaranteed turnaround is promised. Professional memberships and private policies have no reminder system at all.
The real gap
Built to be handed over
Every existing renewal tool reminds the person who set it up. This register is written so a partner, adult child, or executor can pick up any row and know exactly what to do next.
Before you start
What goes in each row
Five facts per item. All from memory — no paperwork hunt required to start.
Item
What's renewing — be specific enough that someone else recognises it. “Passport (Sarah)”, not just “Passport”.
Renewal date
When it's next due. An approximate date recorded is more useful than an exact one that only exists in your head.
Cycle
One-off, annual, every 3 years, every 10 years, or other/irregular.
Next action
What actually has to happen — not just “renew”. The specific step someone else would need to take.
Owner
Whose item it is, so a shared household register doesn't collapse into one person's list.

Your Renewal Register
A calendar reminder only helps the person who set it, while they're around to see it. This register is built to be handed over — so a partner, adult child, or executor can pick up any row and know what to do.

A passport, a professional membership, a policy that renews once a year and never reminds you.
After you fill it in
What this record covers — and what's outside it
R-02 is the renewal layer — dates and actions, not the documents themselves.
Where the physical items live belongs in R-04 Designated Places. Together they mean an executor or trusted person finds not just what exists, but what's about to lapse.

The Executor Brief pulls this register in so nothing lapses unnoticed during administration
Executor Brief
Known limits
R-02 is an internal Valoren instrument — not a legal document and not submitted anywhere.
It doesn't replace DVLA, MOT, or insurer renewal reminders — keep those running alongside it.

FAQ
Renewal Register — questions, answered.
A calendar reminds you.
This register is built to be handed over — to a partner, an adult child, an executor — so the next renewal doesn't depend on you personally remembering it, or being able to act on it.
No — keep those.
This sits alongside them, for everything with no automatic reminder of its own: professional memberships, subscriptions, a partner's passport, anything without a government or provider system behind it.
Enter what you know — even just the year, or 'renews every spring'.
An approximate date recorded is more useful than an exact one that only exists in your head.
Yes — mark the cycle as 'other' and use the next-action field to note the real pattern, for example 'renews when the lease is renegotiated'.
