An electrical EICR report became mandatory from 21st April 202I. Consequently, since most were issued for five years, I think there may be a rush to get renewals in April next year. My question is, can new EICR reports be forward dated to protect the original expiry date as is the case with gas safety checks?

You can arrange for a gas safety check to be carried out any time from 10-12 months after the last completed check, without affecting the original expected expiry date. If it’s less than 10 months or more than 12 months after the last check, you’ll end up with a new deadline date 12 months from the most recent check .
